The Inspiration: A Memory and a Model
The idea for Xungrily was born from a pivotal memory. Our founder, Shaquan Jones, never forgot what it was like to grow up in a food-insecure household. Though money was often tight, the availability of good, nutritious food was sometimes tighter. That feeling became a lifelong question:
How can we make it possible for everyone to eat good, nutritious food even if theyb can’t afford it?
The answer came from an unexpected place: a simple “Buy One, Get One” sale at her local grocery store. It clicked: shared eating. What if buying groceries for yourself could automatically mean buying groceries for a neighbor? That’s when Xungrily P.B.C. was born.
