Alliance is a collective impact partnership between Together, Inc., Heart Ministry Center, and Food Bank for the Heartland. Students will work collaboratively with staff to make approximately five recipe videos (similar to “Tasty” social media videos). They will use selected recipes from the cookbook that was completed this past semester. The service learning group will meet at food for the Heartland on Mondays for filming the videos. The completed videos will be posted on the Together and Heart Ministries websites and Facebook, and played on the lobby tvs. This project will also include volunteering in the food pantries of Together/Heart, and may include tracking inventory outside the pantry hours.
