In 2022, Dare to Care launched the Partner Investment Program, designed to empower our partners to improve their service to individuals facing food insecurity.
“We are incredibly grateful for our ongoing partnership with Dare to Care and for the opportunity to offer additional food access points for our campus community. This is one of the most important steps in increasing food security and stability, and we know it will increase retention and success for our students and food security and well-being for all pantry users.” IU Southeast
The program invests in the launch of innovative solutions, strengthening promising solutions, and stabilizing critical partners reaching historically disadvantaged populations.
Dare to Care’s partner organizations are encouraged to apply for grant funding to support their efforts to serve the larger security.
The application window for 2023 is now closed. Applications will reopen Spring 2024.
