The mission of Food for the Hungry’s City Initiatives is to connect and integrate sectors of the Phoenix culture to form productive collaborations, to find and walk with high impact leaders, and to equip and empower people to overcome poverty. 

 

Vision for Phoenix

In so doing, City Initiatives seeks to position the city of Phoenix as a leader in humanitarian work both here and abroad, walking with four influential sections of our culture.
