Nourish News

Now that we have officially launched our new website, nourishnantucket.org, we are excited to embark upon this next chapter of partnership and growth. Although a few things have changed, like our name and website, our mission and our values haven`t. We will continue to:
➡️ Support & strengthen our food program partners
➡️ Examine the food sector to identify the gaps
➡️ Fundraise collectively & bring in new donors
➡️ Use our Food First platform to reach the maximum amount of clients

Hey #Nantucket! Have you been to @stopandshop this week? We are so honored to be the recipient of this month`s Feed It Forward program! From June 6 through July 7, you can round up your transaction to the nearest dollar. All proceeds raised on Nantucket during this time stay on Nantucket, and go towards our mission to fight food insecurity. Thank you to Stop & Shop for this wonderful opportunity! #feeditforward #foodinsecurity #communitysupport ...

In honor of @nantucketbookfestival which is taking place on island June 12-15, here`s one of our recent recommendations. Released in March 2025, this non-fiction account of 5 families across Atlanta will leave you with more questions than answers. It`s a compelling account of the intersection between job/housing/food/life (in)security in the US. Interestingly and perhaps unsurprisingly, there are many parallels to be drawn between Atlanta and Nantucket. A great read to think about how to break down the barriers of housing and food insecurity in the future. Comment below if you`ve read this book #nonfictionreads #bookdiscussion #nantucket ...

Team work makes the dream work ✨
Just a few of the people who are tirelessly working to end food insecurity with us. Thank you for your commitment to the cause! #Nantucket #communitysupport ...

Partner Spotlight:
@ourhousenantucket is not just an ordinary after-school program; it’s a nurturing environment where students engage in meaningful mentorship to explore their goals and to develop life skills.

Three nights per week, they participate in family-style meals, contributing to meal preparation while building camaraderie and learning healthy eating habits 🍽️

We are proud to partner with them and to support their mission
