How does this help?
As Sasha explains in this Radio BDC preview,
“Poverty is a full-time job.“
This benefit event provides relief to individuals and families who could use a hand when it comes to food access.

“Bad food is cheap food. And if people are really trying to choose between paying the rent and eating, they’re gonna feed their kids, if they can…So you’re gonna pick the thing you can afford to make their bellies full, but it’s not necessarily nutritious.”
“I want to give a shoutout Mudflat…So much heart and soul has gone into this event, so much of people’s time and talent spent on…helping build stronger communities where people are healthy.” —Sasha Purpura
