We are announcing our partnership with with @DoorDash via its Project Dash initiative to increase fresh produce accessibility to children and their families in NYC, Houston, and Washington D.C.

Through this partnership, DoorDash’s Project DASH makes it possible for families facing transportation barriers to participate in the Brighter Bites program. DoorDash drivers will go to select enrolled schools to gather the produce boxes and deliver them directly to families’ doorstep. By using the same technology available to DoorDash’s merchant partners, Brighter Bites can reach families in an innovative way and continue to provide fresh food to those in need. To date, Project DASH has powered more than 1.8 million deliveries of an over 33 million estimated meals across the U.S. and Canada.

At this time, DoorDash is being utilized at select schools in three of our nine Brighter Bites cities, including New York City, Washington D.C., and Houston. We plan to extend the partnership to the remaining cities this fall where this type of support is needed the most.

“We are honored to partner with Brighter Bites to broaden food access by delivering fresh food to families in New York City, Washington, DC, and Houston,” said Brittany Graunke, DoorDash Drive Director. “Local delivery has been critical in supporting food banks and other social impact organizations’ provision of food and other essentials while emphasizing convenience and dignity. We’re excited to continue growing this work in a sustainable way for our partners across the country to continue to meet the ongoing need.”
