Business of the Week Fabulously Vegan Kitchen Makes Healthy Living Delicious

by Camille Dangerfield

Chef Artinces, vegan lifestyle coach, blogger, and chef/owner of Fabulously Vegan Kitchen, offers several meal plan options, catering, and a variety of creative individual meals. After being vegan for many years, her passion for cooking and serving others inspired her to take the leap to share her plant-based deliciousness with the world on a full-time basis.

Recently celebrating her first year in business, Artinces's vegan delights are the perfect solution for seasoned veggie eaters (Get it? Seasoned! Lol.) and newbies alike. And I can personally attest that her meals are to LIVE for!

Press play to learn more about Artinces and follow her on all social media platforms @fabulouslyvegan. Visit shop.fabulouslyvegan.com to see her current menu and meal plans.

Good News "It Starts With Us" Grants Available for Youth Projects The St. Louis Area Violence Prevention Commission (STLVPC) works to reduce violent crime in the region by promoting and advocating for policies and a coordinated, well-resourced support system and interventions among area governments, institutions and agencies that serve individuals and families most at risk of violent crime.

Youth-focused programs such as The Community Youth Cafe and Take Back the Park: Feeding and Reading, which gives free lunch and free books, as well as community canvassing, are a few of the initiatives of the STLVPC that are focused on rebuilding the trust of St. Louis youth.

The commission has launched the “It Starts With Us” youth leadership program, which will award 20 grants of up to $2,500 to youth-led projects that are designed to create positive, safe, and fun spaces.

Youth (between the ages of 15-25) are encouraged to develop proposals for projects. As an informal group or in partnership with community organizations, youth can submit project ideas that encourage growth in youth leadership, artistic expression, community improvement, civic engagement, and life skills development.

Interested youth may submit an application and include an overview of their idea, the opportunity they see in their community, why it matters to them and what they would like to do about it by visiting the social media sites of the St. Louis Area Violence Prevention Commission.

To apply, visit https://tinyurl.com/yc3mw8qc.
