The Figueroa Wu Family Foundation works for community wellness, targeting hunger, fighting racial and economic inequities, and providing an inviting space for learning and cultural engagement. We address social and health injustices through lenses of empowerment, collaboration, and sustainability.
The Figueroa Wu Family Foundation formed in 2017 after Hurricane Maria annihilated the Caribbean. In 2018, we started a food pantry in Pilsen that has distributed over 1,500,000 pounds of food and household supplies to over 25,000 visitors since opening. The Foundation began doing business as the Pilsen Social Health Initiative in April 2020.
Our Foundation aims to advocate for individuals and communities in need, but we cannot achieve our goals alone. Find out how you can help.
