Together, we can tackle food injustices through education and lots of love. We’re so glad you're ready to get started on ending hunger and improving nutrition in our nation’s capital.

We can’t fulfill our mission without our supportive volunteers and generous donors!

Volunteer

By volunteering your time to Roots for Life, you will make a difference in one hour, one day, one week or longer.

Partner

We work with our partners to meet our mutual organizations’ goals. Partnerships range from collaborating on cause-marketing campaigns to employee-giving campaigns to volunteering and everything in between. 

You Can Help

Every donation matters especially when it comes to giving  back to your community or just making someone smile!

Donate a Housewarming Basket

These Housewarming Baskets include dishes, cooking utensils, cookware, an herb plant, and healthy recipe cards for people and families successfully moving out of transitional housing into their own independent community living!

Host a Fundraiser

The more funds you raise for Roots for Life, the more lives we can change! And remember, the more people you ask, even if they say no, the more people know about the health impacts in the community.

Somebody living in a food desert faces daily obstacles preventing them from going to a grocery store and buying fresh, nutritious foods like fruits and vegetables.
