Description

When you are born with privilege, there’s a depth of cultural understanding that you can only gain from people who live the issue you’re trying to solve. When Curt Ellis co-founded FoodCorps almost 15 years ago, he quickly realized that only parachuting AmeriCorp members to underserved communities wasn’t quite right. Today, FoodCorps recruits a majority of people within the communities they serve. In this episode, Curt and FoodCorps President Dr. Harvey tell us how this approach is getting them closer to an ambitious goal: to provide every child in the U.S. with access to food education and nourishing food.Featuring Curt Ellis, Co-founder and CEO, FoodCorps and Dr. Robert S.

Let’s face it: We can’t fix the world alone. There is a new, catalytic approach to solving the world’s toughest problems — one that is grittier, more collaborative and less reliant on a single charismatic leader or silver bullet solution.On System Catalysts, you will hear and learn from activists, philanthropists, and change makers who are bringing more inclusive, connective, system level solutions to our most persistent challenges. Each week, hosts Tulaine Montgomery, Jeff Walker and English Sall will share personal stories of catalysts and how they collaborated with others to successfully tackle issues from access to food and health services, racial injustice, mental health and much more.  Each episode will guide and inspire you to use a catalytic approach to addressing tough problems.System Catalysts is produced by Hueman Group Media.
