Pass the Peaz Founder Carl Vann

from Diaspora Food Stories · host The Global Food and Drink Initiative

If there is anything we remember from our childhood, it is food and the hands that prepared it. For Carl Vann, it is his grandmother who he would sit and watch in the kitchen as she prepared some of the family favorites that he as an adult would later recreate.  This time spent together before losing her when he was 12 would be the inspiration behind his business and app called Pass the Peaz.  The South Carolina native is on a mission to help families save their cherished recipes for the next generations while supporting food insecure individuals through its food rescue initiative.
