Good. I want my tax dollars to help people. My dream is that I don’t have to run a nonprofit that advocates for a stronger safety net while also providing free meals to the community because the government decided to take care of its people. Until then, Project Sauce will continue to do the work

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

Well.. today, I made 40 meals for @projectsaucenyc.bsky.social using a recipe John and Abagail used for their Independence Day dinners. I also cooked like 50 of a Mac and cheese dish that James Hemings, the chef enslaved by Jefferson used to make.

120 meals to the fridge and 15 more directly to a family. Sometimes, the world feels bleak. That’s where community comes in. Community action brings hope. And in the words of Harvey Milk, ya gotta give em hope.

For those struggling in Atlanta (and I was ABSOLUTELY one of you after a hit and run on my bike left me bedridden for way past my finances), please check out Metro Atlanta Urban Farm in East Point (a short walk from the train). They taught me a lot while also feeding me fresh vegetables. Love them.

117 meals today. Bolognese or Cannellini in Tomato Sauce (not pictured) We’re not naive enough to think one meal will end hunger, but we are bold enough to believe each meal distributed is a step toward the change we desperately need Poverty is a policy choice and we choose something better

Being able to drag 3 wagons worth of meals to the fridge on Sunday was exhausting but so exciting. As the affordability crisis rages on with indifference from Washington, we at Project Sauce are choosing something better. Community.

We were able to cook 151 meals and bring them to the Brooklyn Heights Community Fridge on Sunday. Our highest meal count yet. Check out the work we’re doing and throw us a donation if you can. Our next goal is to rent a commercial kitchen and increase our output! www.projectsauce.org

We are so excited to be recognized as 501c3 charitable organization. In 3 months, this group of friends came together with an idea, started cooking and packaging over 1k meals, incorporated in the state of NY, and raised thousands of dollars through grassroots marketing.

There’s one estimate that $25billion a year would end hunger in this country.

$200 BILLION for a war of choice that Americans don't want and that isn't making us safer. This should be an absolute nonstarter.  The best way to end this war, protect our troops, save civilian lives, & rein in a lawless Administration is to cut off funding. I’m a hell no.
