Stoked is a network of food trucks for which 25-50% of operating time will be spent in food insecure neighborhoods selling food on a donation-priced basis, while the remaining time is spent selling meals at market price in other neighborhoods. These food trucks will be operated and partially owned by entrepreneurs from the local food-insecure community, and representative of its demographics in order to create culturally applicable and locally marketable meals.

Stoked's target beneficiaries are asset-limited, income-constrained, employed (ALICE) consumers for whom time and money are at a premium, fresh produce is difficult to access, and dignity is important. They are led by a wonderful chef, Kiara Jones, who has accumulated over 600k followers on social media for her cooking and has catered throughout Chicago including for some Chicago Bears players! 

Stoked is excited to announce they will be operating on Friday, May 12^th at 58th St & Ellis Ave, Chicago, IL from 11 AM – 1:00 PM.
