Grace In Action CDC co-founded Grace In Action CDC and co-created The Grace Market

For decades, the traditional food assistance network has relied on a logistics-heavy, warehouse-centric model. At Grace In Action CDC, we believe it is time to shift our focus from moving physical pallets to moving digital value. We are the creators of The Grace Market and the "Digital Dignity Response Model." Inflation has created a new class of food insecurity: the ALICE population (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed). These are hardworking families working 40-hour weeks who are caught in the "benefits cliff"—making just enough to disqualify them from government assistance, but not enough to survive the rising cost of living. Furthermore, physical food banks are often closed by the time these parents clock out of their shifts. We are changing the math. Grace In Action CDC provides digital grocery grants sent directly to a family's smartphone. We bypass closed warehouses and remove the "Logistics Tax" of overhead, allowing 100% of our funding to go directly to feeding families with fresh, culturally appropriate, and medically tailored food. We are not just managing poverty; we are implementing dignity. Partner with us as we scale this solution from a local pilot to a national standard.
