Nonprofit: Feeding Westchester
Feeding Westchester leads hunger action programs with a vision for a hunger-free Westchester. It provides 95% of all the food given to hungry families, children and seniors as cooked meals or groceries to take home. Almost 53% of the hungry people served by Feeding Westchester live on income at/or below the poverty level; 33% are children age 18 or younger.

Project: Food distribution strategy “2.0”
Strategic consulting project to assess how Feeding Westchester can best increase the volume of food it distributes to heretofore unmatched levels. Areas of focus will include:

• Frame benefits, pain points, challenges / limitations of current distribution approaches
• Glean distribution strategy “best practices” and insights from peer organizations
• Assess impact of strategic alternatives on Feeding Westchester‘s food distribution agency partners
• Lay out “next generation” food distribution strategy, trade-offs, anticipated execution challenges
• Model how new strategies will better support Feeding Westchester’s future growth and long-term strategic objectives

Details:

• Kick-off meeting (likely in New York City) penciled in for afternoon of April 10th
• Time commitment approximately 10-15 hours per month for 3-4 months
