The Health Trust

Increasing fresh food access for low-income families

24% of kids in Santa Clara County live in food deserts, with limited access to healthy options. Meanwhile, the Bay Area hosts a year-round growing season, acres of unused land, and a network of eager urban farmers. The Health Trust will extend its "Good. To go." program, creating new distribution channels for affordable produce. This program expands street vendors, corner stores, and farmers' markets for underserved areas. Over two years, The Health Trust will distribute 50,000 pounds of produce to 10,000 low-income residents in Santa Clara County.
