Meet our Founder

"If you can help change someone's life, why wouldn't you do it." -Becca.

 FoodRaising Friends (FRF)  was founded with a friend and a heart to feed children. Becca says they didn't know the power and impact  food would be on a child's life–they just knew kids deserved to eat. 

Through the founding of FRF and seeing food's impact, Becca made it her mission to advocate for the needs of children in the local community. Not every child is well fed, and there are those who don't always tell someone they are hungry for fear of rejection or embarrassment. Sometimes kids don't even know help is available. 

That is why FRF exists–we feed children with the help of caring people in the community. FRF works directly with school and program personnel, providing resources to children identified as food needy. There is no barrier at FRF between a child and access to the food they need. 

Becca is passionate about children getting through their childhood fed and allowing that to propel them to be their best selves alongside their family and community. Her three children will never know a world where FRF does not exist, and while sometimes she wish it didn't have to–she is so glad it does. FRF makes a difference in children's and families' lives with the simple gift of food. 

Becca truly lives for this work because she believes in the difference the gift of food makes in a person's life. Changing people's lives for the better truly makes any community a better place to live for you, your children, and those you serve. When you meet Becca, expect to hear more about childhood hunger and a call to action from FRF.
