Mission
"Cause Momma Said Share"
Welcome to the Orange County, CA branch!
Message us if you're interested in helping and we'll give you all the details!
The mission of Burrito Project is to provide people with the means to become active members in their community. It is a way for people to bridge a gap between the fed and the hungry. Burrito Project is in no way, shape, or form affiliated with any religious or political organization; we are non-fame and a non-personal recognition group. We would rather profit with personal satisfaction than personal recognition. There is no Burrito Project headquarters or leader nor a need for one.
As children we were taught to share. This was a lesson that never limited whom we should share with. There were no social or economic guidelines. Childhood lessons have shaped the way Burrito Project looks at our communities.
The Project is simply providing a tool to show how fun, easy, inexpensive, and rewarding feeding hungry people can be and, more universally, how it feels to know that you're making a difference.
The Project is a guideline for serving people in your community. The homeless and hungry are people. They are our sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, and parents.
The Project is a respectful extension of our collective dinner table. It is a way to recognize people who are often ignored and even demonized throughout the day.
The Project recognizes the problematic nature of our nation’s and world’s homeless situation.
The Project is not a solution to homelessness or hunger, but more simply a means to ease the struggles of people in our own communities.
The Project is a step by step, do-it-yourself outline of a way to get involved. The Project is there for you to expand and build upon.
The Project is respectful and friendly. Despite the reasons for these people’s displacement, the project extends a free burrito without judgment. There is no sermon or lecture. We offer substance in the form of a handshake, eye contact, warm food, and even some hugs.
Each branch of Burrito Project in each city is independent of each other. We hope to inspire other Burrito Project chapters to grow organically from our example.
