Ceres Community Project and founder Cathryn Couch have been featured by CNN’s Hero series. The honor put Ceres in the national spotlight along with 24 other nonprofits and showcases the work Ceres does to provide healthy, life-sustaining food to Sonoma County residents experiencing medical crises.
CNN has produced and posted short videos about Ceres to introduce viewers to their mission.
