ABOUT FEELGOOD

FeelGood students raise awareness and funds for the end of hunger. Their primary vehicles are non-profit grilled cheese delis run by committed groups of informed campus leaders. Students volunteer their time and talent to offer grilled cheese sandwiches in exchange for a donation. 100% of deli proceeds are invested in organizations with proven track records of sustainably eradicating hunger and empowering self-reliance. Over 20 FeelGood delis are operating on campuses across the country, initiating thousands of dialogues, training hundreds of student social entrepreneurs, and mobilizing over $80,000 annually for the end of hunger. To date, student-run delis have helped raise over $1.4 million for investment in our partner organizations, an impact made possible in part because of partnership with people like you!

WHY PARTNER WITH FEELGOOD?

Beyond granting permission to operate a food-related enterprise, there are rich opportunities for collaborative, mutually beneficial partnership right from the start.

Complement your existing services.


FeelGood delis can give the campus community access to high-quality food during unconventional hours or in other locations! FeelGood could offer a late night deli for parts of campus that close food operations following dinner, ensure there is a weekend meal option when dining services are unavailable, or set-up in an under-served part of campus.

Reinforce your image as a civic-minded, community-oriented service provider.


Partnering with dynamic and compassionate FeelGood students will serve as a constant reminder to the campus community that dining services is aware of and engaged with issues of global and local hunger. Take it a step further: allow students to utilize meal plan points or credit to donate in exchange for a sandwich and truly honor your commitment to playing a role in creating a sustainable future for all life.

Support students professional development as social entrepreneurs.


Your expertise and presence as a food service provider offers a unique gift to FeelGood students: a hands-on learning environment. Providing FeelGood deli volunteers with food safety training or certification, perspective on local food systems and issues, and mentorship in their deli operations would help them grow - and will nourish you, too.
