Iskashitaa is looking for new MOMs! MOM stands for Market on the Move, which aims to rescue millions of pounds of fresh produce from going to waste every year in Nogales landfills. MOM collects unwanted produce from produce brokers and then distributes that produce in Tucson and Phoenix.
Market on the Move occurs from 8am-noon every Saturday at various host sites around Tucson. Supporters can visit MOM regularly to give a $10 donation and receive up to 60 pounds of fresh produce. Donations can be made at the host site, so there is no need to pre-register or pre-donate online.
If your household cannot use all 60 pounds of fresh produce, you can become an Iskashitaa MOM! Help feed families instead of landfills and donate the excess produce to Iskashitaa. We will then distribute the produce to refugee families throughout Tucson.
To donate your produce, email us at volunteer@iskashitaa.org, or call our office at 520-440-0100. We will schedule a time for you to drop off the produce at our office on Grant Rd.
Thank you for joining in our mission to leave no fruit behind!
