Partnerships and collaborations are essential for community projects, illustrating the strength of working together to serve a greater community good.
Oakland Food Connection, as a community organization, could not be possible without the support of numerous community members throughout the Bay Area who have encouraged our growth. Naming them all would be quite difficult. Yet, our thanks to them is filled with love, kindness, respect and appreciation.
