About
Our Mission
The purpose of the GNV4ALL Chapter (est. 2020) is to connect University of Florida students with their off-campus community through involvement by learning about and actively seeking meaningful solutions to persistent systemic problems of race and poverty in Gainesville. We particularly focus these efforts on the areas of health and transportation, family support, education, and criminal justice. Our main sources of involvement include community meetings, service events, discussion forums, and project planning.
​
Our parent organization, Gainesville For All Inc., was formed to address racial and economic inequities that hurt people and hinder our community from achieving its best potential. It is an initiative of The Gainesville Sun in partnership with the Community Foundation of North Central Florida.
