What an amazing way to say goodbye to 8th grade! 🎉 The student council at Watts Middle School turned their Farewell Dance into a food drive and fundraiser, raising $525 and collecting 102 pounds of food for our neighbors in need.

A huge thank you to every student who made this happen. You proved that even a dance can change lives!

Congratulations to Solvita for being recognized as a 2026 Volunteer Champion!

New partnerships have the power to create lasting impact, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to grow alongside dedicated community partners.

In 2025, Solvita partnered with us for their annual staff fundraiser. Through their Solving Hunger campaign, employees embraced multiple ways to support our mission, from making donations to volunteering their time through several shifts onsite in our warehouse and urban garden.

We’re thankful for their commitment to our community and honored to be selected once again as the beneficiary of their annual fundraiser this year. Together, we’re making a meaningful difference in the fight against hunger. ♥️

Thank you Dayton Daily News and Brandon Berry for covering our compost operations!

Although composting is not the most glamorous work, it serves as medicine for the earth, both for the soil itself and for those who live upon it. The eighteen essential nutrients that our bodies need come from the ground. Composting not only diverts organic waste from landfills that pollute the earth, but it also feeds the soil that feeds you.

To learn more about how and why composting is integrated into our daily work and explore new technologies of composting (including how we use the f***l matter of 80,000 worms to produce compost 50 times more valuable than your average compost pile), check out the rest of the article!
