Mojave High School students and their families will be able to get fresh groceries at no cost, thanks to a new market opening on campus.
The Just One Project, a nonprofit mobile food pantry, held a ribbon-cutting ceremony Thursday for the “Community Market at Mojave High School” in North Las Vegas.
It’s the organization’s third community market at a Clark County School District site. And it’s the first inside a high school.
Brooke Neubauer, founder and CEO of The Just One Project, said Wednesday that it’s essentially a “grocery store in a school” that will offer items such as fresh produce, proteins and dairy.
“This, we’re hoping, helps kids stay focused on school so they don’t have to focus on where their family’s next meal is coming from,” she said.
