GiVE 365 Supports Nourished Communities

Access to fresh, nourishing food is more than a basic need—it’s the foundation of thriving families and connected communities. This month, five local nonprofits received $60,000 from GiVE 365, the Community Foundation’s dollar-a-day giving circle, advancing this year’s theme: Nourished Communities.

These organizations are doing transformative work across Memphis: Alcy Ball Development Corporation is expanding its Family Dinners program with meal kits and community dining; Black Seeds Urban Farms connects neighbors to fresh food, education, and shared growing spaces; Sunshine and Daisy Mobile Food Pantry delivers nutritious food across 32 ZIP codes; The Table Spread provides grocery deliveries and hot meals for families and unhoused neighbors; and The Works, Inc. is expanding community orchards in food-insecure neighborhoods.

By investing in these efforts, GiVE 365 members are helping ensure that more Memphis families have not only enough to eat, but neighbors to eat alongside.
