Our work

Practical help matters.

Our programs are being designed around nutrition, community, education, and self-reliance.

Whole-food access

Support practical access to nutritious whole foods through community-based programs and pilot efforts.

Nutrition education

Share information in a useful, respectful, non-preachy way so people can make informed choices for themselves and their families.

Community support

Work with local partners and trusted community organizations rather than assuming one model fits every place.


Start small. Learn. Improve.

1977 Foundation is intentionally starting with pilot-sized programs. The goal is to learn what is useful, what is sustainable, and what can responsibly grow.
