We cut the ribbon on SHIM’s new South Hills Family Center today! 🎉 A safe, welcoming space where families can access food, parenting support & immigrant services. Thank you @ACE_Innamorato and Erin Dalton + partners for making this possible.

From vibrant cultural clothing and traditional dances to beautiful songs and delicious food, the SHIM Cultural Event at CCAC was a powerful celebration of community and heritage. Thank you Miss Susie @SHIMpgh for a great day! @bwhitfield23 @mrswells_BWSD @BHS_APs

Earlier, students in NAMS’s hydroponics club delivered 66 heads of lettuce to @SHIMpgh. Each donated head of lettuce was grown organically over the past 28 days in the school’s hydroponic towers. SHIM serves approximately 3,500 people per month through its food pantries.

Meet Audrey, a food pantry participant at SHIM youtu.be/jo-zKBHhVVE via @YouTube. Audrey fell on hard times during the pandemic. Coming to SHIM's food pantry distributions twice per month helps her access healthy foods as she regains her self-sufficiency. ❤
