CEO AND FOUNDER OF EAT, MALIK JARRETT EXPANDS PHILANTHROPIC FOOTPRINT IN COMMUNITY
Late in 2017, Jarrett founded his non-profit EAT Cares, Inc. The mission of the EAT Cares is to provide youth with job training and mentoring, educational, and entrepreneurial skills. EAT Cares also uplifts the community by serving the marginalized and long-forgotten through programs feeding the homeless, providing students with school supplies, and encouraging the unemployed to join the workforce.
In December of 2017, the EAT team joined forces with DC government’s Office of Neighborhood Safety and Engagement (ONSE) to set up 4 mentorship programs at different public schools. The mentorship programs include an anti-violence campaign and several career day workshops.
In January of 2018, Eat Cares received its first grant from DC government to execute a 15-week program with the Department of Youth Rehabilitation Services (DYRS). The program will center around entrepreneurships, fashion, and graphic design.
