This Chicago Nonprofit Uses Food to Unlock a Child's True Potential
Briefly

"I had to figure out a way to soup [sic] up the gas mask. It was beyond creative. It was thought-provoking. It called for us to think of how Black inventors have impacted the world and create awareness."
"We're just using food instead. Food isn't solely for nutrition and sustenance; it's a tool for transformational change. TEN began as a way for me to preserve the memories of my aunt and my father."
"One of my favorite memories of her is walking around her garden. She grabbed her basket and said 'Let's go out and grab some stuff.' That was one of the most peaceful moments of my life."
"My father prioritized financial literacy among his family. But he also stoked my interest in food. During Restaurant Week he would have a whole bunch of recipes we’d try to recreate."
