Jorge Mendoza joined the Greenway team as a coordinator in 2023. Born and raised in South Central LA, Jorge is passionate about fitness, hiking, and leading a healthy lifestyle. His commitment to wellness inspired him to work with Urban Tilth, an organization dedicated to improving the health and well-being of communities. Growing up in a neighborhood similar to Richmond, where food deserts prevail and healthy options are scarce, Jorge wanted to contribute to meaningful change. At Greenway, he helps create a clean, safe space where Richmond residents can walk, enjoy the trails, and harvest fresh fruits and vegetables. For Jorge, the joy of seeing the community come together at local events and volunteer activities makes his efforts truly rewarding.
