We have developed some great videos, thanks to funding from the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) and The Ford Foundation that help community members, like you, figure out how to best support one another when it comes to food access and food security.

Kelly’s Kitchen presents a multi-part video series designed to empower communities with practical, accessible ways to support food security. Funded by the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD) and The Ford Foundation, this series explores simple actions anyone can take to strengthen local support networks, reduce stigma around receiving assistance, and make food resources more inclusive for people with disabilities.

Across the videos, viewers learn how to stock and maintain Little Free Pantries, how to donate effectively and respectfully to community food programs, and how to build a culture of mutual aid through everyday acts of support. Each video highlights real examples, step-by-step guidance, and strategies that make a meaningful difference—whether you’re an individual, neighbor, or organization looking to get involved.
