OUR MISSION:

Jubilee is a food truck ministry. We are vehicle to get faithful folks out of their worshipping buildings and into the community to serve food-truck style food with respect to the food and housing insecure. We are committed to helping New Americans create sustainability through food industry training and on the job experience.


Jubilee’s three phase plan…

We are a work in progress with big plans. See what we have in store!

Phase Two has expanded to include training for New Americans and Detroiters in the food industry, offering them hands-on experience through on-the-job training aboard our food trucks. We are currently in the process of training 21 individuals from diverse backgrounds across the globe and 4 Eastside Detroiters recently graduated.

Phase Three focuses on establishing a dedicated food truck hub. This facility will house a commercial kitchen and provide all the essential resources for food industry professionals in one convenient location. Monthly memberships will be available on a sliding scale to ensure accessibility. Food trucks will be able to park on-site and utilize the full range of amenities.

In addition, the hub will feature a training space designed to help aspiring food entrepreneurs develop the skills they need to succeed. Participants will be able to prepare and sell their authentic cuisines using our food trucks, further promoting cultural diversity and economic opportunity.
