Activities or mission (Part I)
The mission of Massachusetts Avenue Project is to nurture the growth of a diverse and equitable community food system and promote local economic opportunities, access to affordable, nutritious food and social-change education.

The growing green project provides training to low income youths in Buffalo. The training increases their knowledge of where their food comes from, how to grow, process and market healthy food as well as the impact food has on their own health and the health of their community. In addition, the growing green project has a youth enterprise which sells organic and locally made food products at several local venues. Growing green youths are also involved in peer education, visiting local public schools and conducting after school workshops about sustainable urban agriculture, healthy cooking and environmental stewardship.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
