The Kresge Foundation’s unique approach to the intersection of food, culture and art aims at system change from the community level on up.

FreshLo aspires to give communities resources, support, evaluation and the space to turn innovative ideas into impactful practices. In the big picture, FreshLo is a movement, not a simple grant opportunity.
