SAFS students did some work with the former Real Food project, and found them to be a reflective and helpful organization. If you are interested in organizing a campaign to get more college
campuses to shift to values-based purchasing on campus, check out the remote position!

*****************
Real
Food Generation is a Worker Self-Directed non-profit which harnesses the power of youth and universities to create an equitable and sustainable food system.
After winning dozens of campaigns nationally over the last decade that have resulted in $80 million committed to our definition of “Real Food” we have proven that student organizing can
drive substantial change in the food chain across the country. After a time of significant internal restructuring, RFG is revitalizing our engagement with regional and national campaign work. Along with our partners at Anchors in Action, RFG is releasing an
updated set of Real Food Standards and a new version of the Real Food Calculator this summer, setting the stage for unified food procurement standards across a wide set of institutions (hospitals, municipalities, K-12 schools, and higher education). The
Organizing Director and Procurement Director will work together to build winning campaigns that effectively shift university purchasing power towards regional coalitions of values-based producers. The primary universities we will be targeting in 2023-2024
will be in California, with campaigns to expand eastward across the country from 2024-beyond.
RFG is a Worker Self-Directed nonprofit that operates under a horizontal leadership structure. Working with us both demands and fosters high levels of integrity, self-motivation and collaborative
praxis.
