When I consider the foundation's work and the purpose of this scholarship, I believe that my goals are a perfect fit. Early in my high school years, one of my English teachers talked about the 'Think globally, act locally" concept. Like the foundation, I want to work for a better world but understand that my efforts must begin in my own community. It was soon after that class that I began my volunteer work with the Community Fresh Food Program. The program seeks to bring fresh produce to neighborhoods that have had limited access to healthy foods. I have been working on the effort for three years, and in the beginning, our group was confronted with considerable obstacles. Some of the obstacles we faced included local regulations and lack of support when we targeted a low-income area with no nearby healthy food source. It seemed that there were long-standing hurdles too high for a small group of inexperienced young people to overcome. We were uncertain about how to proceed and make our dream a reality.
After meeting for nearly two hours, our group elected me their representative to our township's city council. After getting some help from my government teacher and ensuring all our applications were in order, I organized a campaign to garner neighborhood and community support. We obtained support letters from people in the neighborhood and commitments from area farmers and a food cooperative. I turned all of this documentation into city hall, but our application was denied. An adult participant advised us to move on to another area, so we met the next day to decide what to do next.

Answer:

Despite the setback, I refused to give up on our mission. I knew that the Community Fresh Food Program was important and that the people in the community deserved access to healthy food. I decided to take a different approach and began reaching out to local businesses and organizations for support. I was able to secure a grant from a local grocery store, and with the additional funding, we were able to purchase a refrigerated truck. This allowed us to bring fresh produce directly to the community, bypassing any regulatory obstacles.

With the help of volunteers and community members, we were able to set up regular distribution days and even opened a small farmers market in the neighborhood. The program was a huge success, and the community was grateful for the access to fresh, healthy food. I was proud of what we had accomplished and knew that it was just the beginning of making a difference in my community.

This scholarship would not only help me further my education, but it would also allow me to continue my work with the Community Fresh Food Program. I understand the importance of thinking globally and acting locally, and I am committed to making a positive impact in my community. It is my goal to continue working towards a better world, one community at a time.

The scholarship would be a huge step in achieving my goals, and I am confident that my experiences, dedication, and passion make me the ideal candidate. With this scholarship, I know that I can continue to make a difference in my community
