Engagement Activity, you will be reviewing the Oregon Food Bank,
which provides a source of food support and free or low-cost meals or meals for the
elderly, or opportunities to grow food.
After you complete your website research you will write a short paper (roughly 250-500
words) that addresses what you learned from the website including:
● Program/organization name
● Organizational mission
● Target population (who they serve)
● Community setting (where are they located (e.g. the town, state, in a
neighborhood, school, etc.)
● How the organization/program serves the target population.
● How the organization/program is funded (e.g., government (state/federal/local
funds); non-profit (e.g., sliding scale, donations); private (e.g. for profit)
● How it relates to community nutrition within the context of the social ecological
model.
● If there is an advocacy component that the organization states, they participate
in.
● Why you chose this organization or program.
● From what you learned in the CIP Food Justice Case Study Report, would you
say this organization falls only under food charity or also leans towards food
justice? Explain.
In approximately 100 words or less, what additional information do you wish you could
have found out about the organization?
