The profits from this dinner will go to fund CRAVE: Cultivating Radical Activism, Vitality and Education, a grassroots collective of youth leaders and adult allies who use ART as a tool to learn and spread education about food justice within our communities. CRAVE believes that whoever controls the food controls the future; this is our collective movement towards empowering our community and ourselves.

We are working to partner with other amazing community organizations and food justice projects to establish sustainable urban farming projects in our community while developing skills to transform our futures through internships, artistry, legislation, and of course working, planting, and harvesting. 

Currently we are fundraising to participate in the Rooted In Community Conference in Philadelphia, PA July 27th-August 31st.  The Rooted In Community conference is held in a different city every year with youth lead sustainability organizations from over 30 cities across the country congregate to encourage and prepare young people to lead the food justice movement in their own local communities. This radical conference serves as an opportunity for intensive trainings and networking opportunities for youth-led leadership initiatives as it pertains to food sustainability endeavors.

With your donations and support CRAVE would be an essential part of the 1st EVER PNW regional group to attend this national youth movement and conference!  We also plan to join forces with youth representatives from FEEST and Community 2 Community.

**This meal will feature local raw food.  Raw food is about living Pure, whether you are 100%, mostly or raw-curious; eating raw is about embracing pure plant energy and being conscious of the transformation you go through as your whole outlook is changed. Pure plant energy is ideal because it removes the chemically processed, homogenized, pasteurization and other ways our food sources have been compromised, reconnecting us to the source of all life...Earth! A menu will be provided, however the goal of this meal is to work from scratch with the students, experimenting creating raw cuisine through blending, soaking, marinating, slicing, dicing, drying and incorporating using fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, fresh herbs, grains and/or nuts. Stay tuned...

Come and enjoy a five course raw meal: 1st: Soup 2nd: Appetizer 3rd: Salad 4th: Main Course 5th: Dessert with Pure beverages

Thanks for your support!  We hope to see you there!
CRAVE & Social HeARTistry Educators
