Bandit Tour 2019 Wrap: Braden Ford

Getting hands-on preparing food with Teen Feed helped us connect with the people behind the mission. We quickly learned the solution is more than tangible outputs (meals for homeless youth); it’s one initiative, of many, used to support the community.
When Braden Ford, UX Manager at Traction on Demand, got into the kitchen, he learned about the challenges Teen Feed faces to gain the trust of Seattle’s youth. The consistent hot meals, along with their other services, help build positive relationships with teens as they transition to a future off the streets.
In this case, a meal is more than food, it creates connections and builds community; this theme was also prevalent in Vancouver where the Bandits worked with A Better Life Foundation.
