Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Did you see? We made it on the Inky. Read what we’re all about using the following link: How the Asian Food Collective harnesses the power of community in Philly.


Sirianna Arathi, a volunteer, shares her experience attending AFC's Friendsgiving, “There was this beautiful moment of this community sharing food and meals from our different cultures together [from inside] and outside of the kitchen. And it was just so sweet.” We are touched to see so many people resonating with AFC’s mission to build community through food.


Thank you to:

  • Sabrina Iglesias for reaching out, without you this story wouldn’t have happened,
  • Kristine Villanueva for this beautifully written piece, and
