“The PLATE Collective is a powerful way for young professionals to grow in their knowledge of hunger in Oklahoma, expand their network and make a difference in the lives of Oklahomans,” said Stacy Dykstra, chief executive officer of the Regional Food Bank.
The PLATE Collective will meet monthly throughout the year-long commitment. Members of The PLATE Collective will stay involved throughout the year by joining in fundraising initiatives, community service projects and networking events.
