The Fresh Food and Life Pantry at Chabot College embodies many of the educational theories, institutional navigation strategies and educational pillars that guide the work of TEA. 

FRESH--Food, Resources & Education to Stop Hunger--is a huge success story at Chabot College and is still going strong. FRESH began as the brainchild of one student, Sofia Sanchez-Pillot, in a Passion and Purpose class. 

To bring her vision to fruition, over the following years she and her fellow students navigated through a confluence of classrooms, disciplines, clubs, Academic Services, Student Services, and the wider community.

FRESH offers a shining “proof of concept” for the power of honoring Student Voice and leveraging it across an entire institution.
