Let’s Meet Our Chef
Aisha Robinson is the founder of Vegan Meals that Heal. After experiencing homelessness on and off for eight years, she dreamt of a day where she would be able to help those trapped in food deserts. She and her mother started off by distributing 13 bowls of vegetable soup and hunks of cornbread wrapped in aluminum foil. After running out of food in such a short period of time, she realized how huge the need truly is. She began working with local urban farmers and food rescue programs to gather fresh fruits and veggies to begin providing more meals to those in Atlanta experiencing food and/or housing insecurity. To date, with the help of a few volunteers and her family, she has distributed over 4,800 hot vegan meals from the back of her Toyota mini van.
