Freedom Within Walls

Description

FREEDOM WITHIN WALLS is a 501(C)(3)non-profit organization that was established in 2009 by diverse business professionals aimed at extinguishing hunger among children and providing enrichment programs for those impoverished. Our mission is to repair, cultivate, and uplift those in challenging situations and circumstances by providing character building, recreational, and educational programs and opportunities. Becoming overwhelmingly aware of the alarming demographic of children, who, due to the lack of supervision from working parents and/or economical restraints do not receive nutritional meals at home, FREEDOM WITHIN WALLS developed three feeding programs "Healthy Snacks", "Grandma’s Kitchen" and "Summer Food Service Program, in which Freedom Within Walls purchases, prepares and distributes healthy snacks and meals for over 5,000 low-income children throughout the year. Each program is designed to provide assistance for the nutrition gap in low-income communities, ensuring that children get the nutritious meals they need when school lets out. FREEDOM WITHIN WALLS is currently developing various after-school and community programs in the South Carolina Upstate and the Charlotte, North Carolina Metropolitan areas.
