Volunteer Grant Writer

LUCI is a community-rooted coalition working to bring Food Is Medicine programs into California's prison system -- because everyone deserves access to food that heals, not just food that fills. We're a small team doing big work, and we need a grant writer who believes in the power of showing up for people the system has forgotten.

As our Volunteer Grant Writer, you'll research funding opportunities, draft compelling proposals, and help us tell LUCI's story to foundations and funders in a way that opens doors. You'll work closely with our Coalition Facilitator and Director to shape narratives around our Food Is Medicine White Paper, cooperative development projects, and the first-ever farmers market inside a California state prison.

This is a volunteer role, but the impact is real. You'll be part of a team that includes cooperative developers, food justice advocates, researchers, and currently incarcerated leaders who are building something that hasn't been done before. If you write with heart and care about justice, we'd love to hear from you.

Time commitment: 5-10 hours/week (flexible, remote)

Reports to: Coalition Facilitator
