The mission of The Cheese Culture Coalition is to promote equity and inclusion within the cheese industry by empowering BIPOC communities through education. Visit cheeseculturecoalition.org for more information about our education programs and grants.
BIPOC communities have limited access to the cheese industry as a whole, including education and ways to advance their careers. Allowing for more education and access through programs that The Cheese Culture Coalition proposes will increase the diversity of the cheese industry by directly impacting the lives of people of color through increased opportunities.
There are currently no other nonprofits that focus on the inclusion of BIPOC communities through open ended funding and education brought directly to students. This is unique in that it allows individuals and students to have access to programs when they wouldn’t otherwise, allowing for an increased likelihood in results. In order to fulfill this need, The Cheese Culture Coalition will use an open ended grant (*Due to COVID, The Cheese Culture Coalition will focus on The Cheese Education Program until travel and funds are available) and a youth outreach program.
