100% of all donations go directly to GRuB’s programs.
- What is this campaign?
- While GRuB works hard year round to build community support through donations for our programs, each year, we make a special push for end-of-year giving, which ensures that we finish the year in the black and start the next with a bang.
- Where does my money go?
- Gifts to GRuB will go into our general operating fund. We do our best to keep administrative expenses low and always prioritize program needs first and foremost.
- Why participate?
- At GRuB, true partnerships with donors are important to us and we don’t take that lightly. We are the best kind of friend and partner. We are accountable, transparent, and as you can tell from our participant stories, we deliver powerful outcomes.
- How do I know my donation will make a difference?
- All donors will receive a story and a photo about a life that has been changed through the work of GRuB!

Raising cash for the end of the world (or my 40th birthday). You choose.
The world is ending! The world of hunger, malnutrition, apathy, disconnection, and isolation is ending. And organizations like GRuB (and people like you) are weaving a new one that welcomes everyone to the table and finds hope, compassion, and power right in the garden. I know that this work greatly affects the youth and families it touches (I get to see it everyday). Please be part of our work and buy a wee bit of GRuB love for our community. It’s a steal. It only costs the amount that feels right.
GRuB is community-based organization that is building a sustainable food system in Thurston and Mason Counties in Washington State one youth and one backyard garden at a time. Teens learn about and contribute to good food solutions while gaining high school credit. Families with low incomes strengthen their own resiliency, health, and pride by starting gardens in their backyards and neighborhoods.
So, whether it’s because you love GRuB’s work or because you like me and want to give a donation in my honor as I turn the BIG 4-0, your dollars will truly change someone’s life. I personally guarantee it! Would it be too outrageous for me to aim for $4,000? (That’s 100 friends @ $40 a pop) Probably, but hell, it’s December 2012, anything is possible.
Thanks for being my friend.

GRuB grows healthy food, people and communities
We inspire positive personal and community change by bringing people together around food and agriculture. Our mission is to build a just, sustainable food system by creating nurturing and engaging leadership opportunities for youth and adults. We create opportunities where everyone can contribute to empowering community food solutions.
GRuB’s Programs
Youth Programs
Through the GRuB in the Schools Initiative, disengaged and/or low-income students earn credits while learning about and contributing to their local food systems. They also engage PreK-12 youth in hands-on learning about soil, plants, food, and community through field trips to the GRuB Farm. They help them explore the question, “Where does our food come from?”
Kitchen Garden Project
Since 1993, GRuB has worked alongside volunteers and gardeners to build more than 2,500 backyard and community gardens, host workshops, and provide support, training, and resources for new gardeners to find success. Their goal is for gardeners to build the skills and connections to organize good food projects in their own neighborhoods.
