WOW EATS
With food collection and distribution, cooking classes and nutrition workshops, WOW EATS is a movement towards achieving food security in our local communities and a stepping stone for eradicating hunger globally.
Our Approach
With a goal of alleviating food insecurity in our community, we focus on providing, teaching, and empowering such that individuals undergo a transformation from in-need and at-risk to food autonomy.
WOW Eats goes beyond satisfying just physical hunger serving as a gateway to conversations of nourishment for mind, body, and soul as well as an invitation to complete fullness that comes through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

Purpose Driven
Sharing a healthy meal not only addresses a physical need but also feeds the soul, satisfying the hunger for friendship, community, and emotional connections common to all.
Unlearning eating habits that do not serve us and embracing those that fuel the body, stimulate the mind, and boost the immune system lead to positive outcomes for individuals and communities at risk.
Planted seeds are harvested in the form of people that serve and care for one another with locally owned businesses and leaders that provide and model nutritional wellness at its best.

By the Numbers
While the numbers are alarming, especially in places in the world where resources abound but access is limited, our efforts to end food security and hunger start at home. Motivated by the love of Christ, We hope to set an example using alternative systems of change and comprehensive models for solutions that are impactful and sustainable for our community and beyond.
