PLEASE DONATE AND HELP WORLD CENTRAL KITCHEN FEED THOSE IN LA HUNGRY DUE TO THE RECENT FIRES.

Help me support World Central Kitchen(WCK), which is making sure there is always a warm meal, an encouraging word, and a helping hand in hard times.

As a food writer, I've always believed that nourishment is a fundamental right, not a luxury. In times of crisis, a warm meal can provide more than just sustenance—it offers comfort, hope, and a sense of normalcy. That's why I'm reaching out to you today to support World Central Kitchen (WCK) in their efforts to aid those affected by the devastating January 2025 Los Angeles fires.

WCK has once again mobilized with incredible speed and efficiency, providing thousands of meals to evacuees and first responders across Los Angeles County.. Their ability to respond swiftly to disasters never ceases to amaze me. In 2017, I had the privilege of volunteering with WCK during the Tubbs Fire, and I witnessed firsthand their remarkable organizational skills and unwavering commitment to feeding those in need.

Today, WCK is on the ground in Southern California, working tirelessly to ensure that no one goes hungry during this crisis[9]. They've partnered with local restaurants and food trucks to distribute hot meals at multiple locations, from Santa Monica to Altadena.

Every contribution, no matter the size, helps provide a meal to someone facing unimaginable hardship. Let's come together and show that in times of crisis, food is more than just fuel—it's a lifeline.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND GENEROSITY. Help me raise $2500 with your generous support.

Thanks Tyler Florence for heading down to LA to help out and feed those in need. I was fortunate to volunteer with Chef Tyler and many other chefs during the 2017 fires and the work they're all doing is amazing.

Having volunteered with World Central Kitchen in Sonoma during the 2019 Fires this is a cause that has become near and dear to my heart.As we are fighting Covid, help us fundraise for this amazing cause and those in need. Please donate however you can.
