We strive to mitigate the effects of food scarcity and food insecurity. Each program was designed to answer a need in our city. nOURish BRIDGEPORT, Inc. is also known for building partnerships across Bridgeport, Fairfield County, and Connecticut. We view these collaborative efforts as ways to connect folks with means with folks with needs, and to give groups and families of all stripes opportunities to serve others.
