Partner with the Food for All Committee to help increase access to food within the Tweed community by building an outdoor food cupboard where individuals and families can access donated items when needed.

Volunteers will assist with constructing a secure outdoor cupboard designed to store food safely year-round. The structure will include a roof, door, and weather protection features.

This project creates a lasting community resource that supports food access and neighbor-to-neighbor care.

Plans for the structure have already been developed, helping to streamline the build process.
