PROVISO FOOD & RESOURCE COALITION

We are continuing to support our community with food, wellness check-in’s and more. Our food coalition officially has a name too, we are now called the Proviso Food & Resources Coalition. We are made up of 5 locally led organizations called: Best of Proviso Township, NextGen Church, Impact Church, God’s Heritage Church, and The Firehouse Dream. I love how we are a multi racial and multi-generational coalition, and it’s been nothing but a pure joy to collaborate and partner with these amazing organizations!

We also had many of other organizations partner with for our Food Distribution on June 6th. The way God has brought an abundance of food and community had been amazing!

Special thanks to: Maywood Police, Village of Maywood, Maywood Census, PP4H, Freedom Fighters, HOJO, The Greater Northern Food Depository, Forty Acres, UTURN Covenant church, UTURN Covenant Church, many individual donors and more!

Photography Teacher...who me?

Since the beginning of Dec 2019, I’ve been teaching photography to a group of students at Proviso East. Our photo club averaged 3-7 students each time we met…which took place on Tuesday’s and Wednesday’s. We made huge progress from learning how to see light, to my students learning how to change their settings in manual, and then how to import and edit their photos in Lightroom. We had big goals of showcasing student work in the hallways, as well as putting on an end of year gallery.

While all programming is on hold with COVID-19, I remain hopeful that when we can meetup again, that we will be able to move forward with pursuing those big goals!

So friends….here’s a few Iphone pics I took while at Proviso East over the past few months.
