OUR MISSION
STUDENT LED, STUDENT FED
Families4Families empowers student leaders to address food insecurity and enact positive change in their local communities. F4F’s unique model elevates the power of young leaders and grassroots organizations by:
Educating students about issues faced by their community,
Coaching them in ways to use our F4F Playbook to host collection events in support of local community partners and
Developing professional skills such as logistics management, communication and leadership.
With 110 student-led clubs across the United States, F4F’s Student Leaders and Volunteers are building meaningful relationships with community-driven organizations across the country.
Our vision is that this model will inspire the next generation of change-makers, philanthropists, and social entrepreneurs.

The F4F Student Club delivers the Bags of Basics and Extras throughout the school year or the summer.
