Nicole's Motto.
To be able to serve my community is not only an important role for me with Brazosport Cares; it is an honor. The accessibility to nutritious foods can be a second thought to some of our day-to-day routines and necessities. My experience through our Free Farmers Markets has opened my eyes to the needs of our community.

I attended one of our Farmers Markets recently and met a very engaging and friendly woman; we can call her Claudine. Upon meeting Claudine conversation was easy and small talked about the weather, children and grandchildren, and about what brought her to our Free Farmers Market. Claudine lives in the West of the Brazos community. Within this community, are many homebound Senior Citizens.

Many of these Senior Citizens live on meager means and are faced daily with the choice to pay for food or afford necessities like utilities. Much of the West of the Brazos community is surrounded by what is called a “food desert,” and these communities often only have convenient stores for people to purchase food. Claudine was gathering food to deliver to many of her homebound, senior neighbors. I walked Claudine to her car and to load up all of the fresh produce and healthy options for her neighbors, and she asked me a simple question. “Would it be trouble if I went back and got food for myself?” Claudine shared with me that she was on her last bit of her paycheck and her husband was unemployed. She, too, did not know where food would come from until the next payday. Tears came to my eyes because Claudine put others simple nutritional needs before her own dietary needs.

Claudine is a Hunger Hero because she recognizes the importance of other's before herself to ensure they are healthy. Because of Claudine, I have made created my motto: In a world full of Nicoles. Be a Claudine.
