The Problem
TaylorAde Kids Club members learn youth entrepreneurship through the TaylorAde Lemonade Stand module. TaylorAde Kids Club members and participants provide care to preschoolers and the elderly in the community. TaylorAde\'s new initiative is to help participants 13 years and up to gain their food handlers license by partnering with Hot Bread Kitchen. Youth will learn the basics of food preparation and the importance of cooking healthy meals to combat diabetes. TaylorAde Kids Club mission is teach community nutrition. TaylorAde services East Brooklyn where unfortunately, is deemed a Food Desert. Access to healthy food selections are limited and education on growing and preparing meals are scarce. TaylorAde advocates for food justice and provides programming to adjust the need. TaylorAde also partners with healthy food distributors to provide exposure to healthy food brands.
