“At Feeding America, our strategic imperative is to keep neighbors experiencing food insecurity at the center of everything we do. Alyssa, Lindsay, and the Prosper Strategies approach have been instrumental in bringing that imperative to life. With their partnership, we involved neighbors to evolve our approach, fostering a more unified and neighbor-centered narrative in the movement to end hunger. Alyssa and Lindsay expertly guided us through the strategic process, collaborating closely with people facing hunger, our CEO and executive team. If your nonprofit is considering making a commitment to developing strategies that center your constituents, there is no one better to guide you than Prosper Strategies.”

### – Jenny Arnold, Vice President, Communications at Feeding America
