Our Mission

Strengthening Our Community

ReUnite the Light is here to strengthen the community by working together to end hunger and food waste in America. As our journey begins within the local area, we plan to one day reach all of Shenandoah County.

We propose a radical idea: minimize the food wasted in America, while also bringing shelf-stable, pantry, and fresh food to the community. Every meal we provide is a step toward a stronger, more connected community.

Our Story

About Us

Antonio and Jana with their family

Antonio and Jana are the founders of ReUnite The Light. Together with their three children, they are dedicated to strengthening their community by working to end hunger and food waste in America.

Their journey began when they witnessed firsthand the staggering amount of food being wasted while families in their community struggled with food insecurity. This sparked a vision: to create a movement that turns surplus into support and waste into hope.

Starting locally in New Market, Virginia, their mission is to minimize food waste in America while bringing shelf-stable, pantry, and fresh food to those in need. With plans to eventually reach all of Shenandoah County, they believe that every meal provided is a step toward a stronger, more connected community.

Through partnerships with local businesses and the support of caring neighbors, Antonio and Jana are building more than a food pantry—they're creating a community where everyone is treated with dignity, compassion, and hope.
