Kevin Boston-Hill speaks with the Junior Achievement Social Innovation Challenge Team from Lincoln HS in Yonkers, NY, about their project to bring fresh, wholesome foods to neighborhoods classified as food deserts and for people who have food insecurities. The team consisted of teacher, Drilon Gojani, and students Aldijana Srdanovic and Nashelly Mendoza Martinez. Aldijana and Nashelly were one of three teams from New York selected to compete in the national competition in Atlanta, Ga. They were assisted by community volunteers, Lawrence Berger, Federico Arellano, and Joey Parker. Junior Achievement USA was represented by the Senior Manager of Programs, Caroline Tzelios.
