Our Team
Meet the people who make it all happen.
Executive Team
As executives or presidents of Food4Philly, we work to organize Food4Philly so that our dedicated members and volunteers can carry out our mission of service and fighting hunger in as easy a manner as possible. Specifically, the executive team oversees large partnerships, growth, and legal items. By working closely with all teams at Food4Philly, the executive team looks to delegate work effectively while still being very involved in day-to-day operations such as event planning and chapter initiation. Feel free to contact us at food4philly@gmail.com for more information!
