When the area non-profit Locally Fed began just a couple of months ago, things happened fast. Started by UC students, including College of Arts and Sciences Journalism graduate Madalyn Norman, and current students Madi Rinaldi and Emily Buck, the organization was designed as an innovative solution to a unique challenge: helping feed Cincinnati during the COVID-19 pandemic and support restaurants hit hard by the crisis.
To get started, the women solicited donations from friends and family to buy meals from local eateries. They also reached out to different publications to get the word out and keep the donations coming in.
