Send HOPE this holiday season! The Together for “HopeBox” contains three products produced by our coalition members and partners across our three service regions. By purchasing a box, you are supporting their efforts to revitalize the communities in which they work, while also supporting Together for Hope as we fight poverty across rural America. 

This holiday season, we’ve included three of some of our favorite products from our partners. 

From the Appalachia Region, Coalition Member, Appalachian Gold’s Mama’s Meat Sauce! Born in the late 1800s in Uniontown, Alabama, the strong, no nonsense matriarch, Grandma Penny crafted the first batch of Mama’s Meat Sauce as a matter of resourcefulness and in a streak of Black brilliance. Likely off the plantation or very near to it, Grandma Penny began the rich legacy of making something out of nothing, infusing flavor and love into lesser cuts of meat, using Mama’s Meat Sauce. Our family came from Alabama as part of the 1900s migration of coal miners to West Virginia, and the next Mama in our family worked as a cook in the boarding house, carrying guns in her apron for protection. Everyone loved the foods she would cook as Mama’s Meat Sauce gained notoriety in the community. Appalachian Gold is a social enterprise focused on revitalizing rural Appalachian communities through sustainable farming and economic development. By partnering with local farmers, they promote the cultivation of heritage crops and organic produce, which helps preserve traditional agricultural practices while boosting the local economy. Appalachian Gold also creates jobs, provides training for underserved populations, and supports food security initiatives. Through their commitment to environmental stewardship and community empowerment, they help build a more resilient, self-sustaining future for the Appalachian region.

From the Black Belt Region, Coalition Member Koinonia Farm’s Party Mix! A crunchy blend of Koinonia's organically grown pecans, nuts, and other salty favorites. Perfect for parties, group gatherings, or an everyday afternoon snack. Our party mix is Handmade in the Koinonia Farm Bakery and includes biologically grown pecans, pretzels, garlic sesame sticks, toasted corn, organic roasted peanuts, cashews, almonds, and pumpkin seeds.

From the Delta Region, Strategic Partner, Nick Wallace Culinary’s Nick’s 26! Nick’s 26 is an all-purpose seasoning composed of twenty-six perfectly blended spices that can be used on all of your favorite meals as the main source of flavor, or as a salt and pepper substitute. Chef Nick Wallace is a celebrated chef from Mississippi known for blending Southern cuisine with modern techniques.

Through his organization, Nick Wallace Culinary, he educates youth on healthy eating and collaborates with non-profits to fight food insecurity.
