F.U.E.L

...is a mobile intervention aimed at improving the mental and physical well-being of children and teens experiencing food insecurity in South Side Providence. Through a network of renovated buses and permanent site docks, the project activates vacant lots near schools during out-of-school hours with food access, education, and space for play.

Each dock responds to site conditions and potential partnerships, while buses rotate between locations on a set schedule. When a bus is present, it hosts site-specific programming; when absent, the dock remains open for public use and outdoor activity.
