Community Fridge Initiative

To date, Buddy System has established ten Community Fridges in Miami-Dade County. These fridges are changing the landscape of food insecurity in Miami, existing in food deserts with a simple message:

This initiative has supported thousands of people in under-represented Miami communities with free, healthy food. Each fridge is painted by a local Miami artist, changing the look and feel of a traditional social service. Simultaneously, these fridges help to combat excess food waste, collecting food that would otherwise go bad via our partnerships with Food Rescue US, Farm Share, and Good Samaritan Meals.
