Spark Change, Build Community
Who we are
United Hands Network is a grassroots, volunteer-driven organization dedicated to empowering communities through reliable, community-driven food news and resources. We believe that local communities have the power to drive meaningful change—supporting small businesses, addressing food safety, and ensuring access to essential services like food banks. Our team is made up of passionate individuals who are committed to highlighting the everyday stories that make our neighborhoods vibrant and resilient.
Our Story
United Hands Network was born out of a shared desire to address the pressing challenges facing our communities. In recent times, government decisions and economic pressures—ranging from shifting food safety protocols by the CDC and evolving consumer protections from the CFPB, to the rising cost of groceries and inflation—have put small businesses and local neighborhoods at risk. In response, a group of dedicated volunteers came together to create a platform that not only keeps people informed but also champions the local heroes who make our communities thrive. We believe that by empowering each individual with knowledge and a way to connect, we can spark a movement that transforms local challenges into opportunities for growth.
