UrbanGreenWorks

Urban GreenWorks (UGW) started 10 years ago with the goals of providing south Floridians with improved access to healthy local foods, environmental education, horticulture therapy, and volunteer opportunities. Zoom ahead and the foundation continues to develop, adapt, and evolve yet the core remains the same: ...of the Community...for the Community...by the Community!

Today, as UGW Global, we are ready to implement a sustainable vision towards three (3) main goals:

1. Personal & Social Responsibility - the ethical obligation, the actions, and the way in which we examine our individual influences to ensure the well being of all members of the community;

2. Food Security - the state of having sustainable access to available quantity, affordable, and nutritious food; and

3. Planetary Health - the health of human civilization and the natural systems on which it depends.

We exist to support and restore the economic, social, & physical health of marginalized communities, where most of the "food deserts" (urban areas where access to affordable and nutritious food is limited) are located. Our work is diversified between:

• Developing, building and planting resilient and sustainable community partnerships, and

• Creating a new narrative of success for these partnerships to develop and grow.

Urban GreenWorks is a 501(c)(3) organization that has evolved from initially implementing our vision on a local level (Miami, FL), to now a decade later, emerging into holding collaboratives and branches in Richmond, VA - Atlanta, GA - St. Vincent and the Grenadines - Haiti - Kenya.
