On behalf of Mission House and the hundreds of individuals we serve annually, we wanted to thank the Oceanside Rotary for their generous donation of water bottles, gleaned from the Water Bottle Drive on July 16, 2024. As the summer heats up, so does the demand for our services. The safety, health and wellness of the unhoused and uninsured we serve is a primary concern and the water bottles collected during this drive will be essential in protecting their health and wellness. Thank you, Oceanside Rotary, for your compassion and generosity! A special thanks to Mayor Chris Hoffman for coordinating this generous event to benefit Mission House.

As a continuation to my post from Monday where I shared about my involvement as a Board member for the School Garden Support Organization, I wanted to expand on my “why”. And why my purpose and passions are centered on supporting equitable learning, school gardens, sustainability, and representation. Today, the majority, ~70% of agricultural workers are foreign born migrants. They are the backbone of our food supply chain, yet often are not given basic human rights or access to the systems/programs we all take for granted. Often, they are the center of vitriolic language and unfair policies; Our farm workers do not receive the respect they deserve. I would like to see dignity and pride in farm work restored. I would like to see agriculture in all forms seen as a meaningful career path. An industry that is valued as significant and has high importance; And that we support through our education system. How can we honor our migrant workers, and the legacies of Caesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta? I think it starts by supporting organizations that teach youth the importance of gardens, farming, sustainability, and communities. It is then we can truly “Honor the hands that harvest your crops.” - Dolores Huerta #purpose #passion #advocacy #nationalfarmworkersawareness #sustainability #community #leadership https://lnkd.in/gccx4yyy
🌱 It's National Farm Worker Awareness Week! This week we honor the farm workers who are the backbone of our food supply and celebrate their invaluable contributions to our communities. 🍇 Regardless of the multitude of challenges farm workers face, such as climate change, immigration, lack of worker protections and pesticides, farm workers remain resilient and continue to work tirelessly to ensure that there’s food on our tables. 🔦 Stay tuned this week as we shine a spotlight on the challenges and issues impacting these essential workers and learn how you can help the workers who put food on our tables. 🤲🏽 This week, please consider making a donation to the UFW Foundation. Your donation goes towards programs and advocacy for farm workers, their communities and families. To donate, go to https://lnkd.in/gtzc7Bfm

We observe Organ Donation Day, we are reminded of the profound impact that selfless acts of generosity can have on saving lives. We believe in protecting and preserving life in every form, whether it’s through the safety gear we manufacture or by raising awareness about the importance of organ donation. Just as our safety PPE is designed to safeguard workers and ensure they return home safely, organ donation is a powerful way to give others the chance to live full, healthy lives. It's a testament to human kindness and the interconnectedness of our shared humanity. Let’s continue to champion both safety in our workplaces and the gift of life through organ donation.

Happy Earth Day! While it’s true that every day is Earth Day, I also know that symbolic days are often just the prompt we need to give to a worthy cause. If you’re looking for such a cause today, please consider donating to Milkweed Editions. Milkweed is publishing some incredible books that represent a range of cultural diversity, address some of today’s greatest ecological challenges, and explore our relationship to place and the more-than-human world—books like Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer, World of Wonders by Aimee Nezhukumatathil, and my personal favorite, Diary of a Young Naturalist by Dara McAnulty. These books change the way people see and live in the world, and that is powerful. (And if you’re looking for other Earth Day charity recs, may I suggest Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), Grist, Clean Water Action Minnesota, and Save the Boundary Waters?) https://lnkd.in/gdCA4QZi
