Common Threads

Common Threads is a nationally recognized nonprofit that champions better community health outcomes through the transformative power of food. For over two decades, we have empowered children and families with cooking and nutrition education to foster lifelong wellness, guided by the belief that access to quality food is a fundamental human right.

Our organization equips under-resourced communities within the Miami area, with the skills and knowledge to make affordable, healthy, and culturally responsive food choices. In the Miami community, Common Threads has impacted over 92,000 children and adults, provided over 855,000 programs hours to schools, community organizations, and medical institutions and providing more than 654,000 million nourishing meals and snacks.
