In a nutshell, it goes like this:
- Each Campus Kitchen is hosted by a school who shares space
in one dining hall’s kitchen, which we call the “Campus
Kitchen.” (Usually, this space is used during less-busy
or off-hours for the dining hall, such as evenings and weekends.)
- Students prepare meals using food donated from campus dining
halls, local food banks, restaurants, and farmers’ markets.
- Then, students deliver meals free of charge to individuals
and agencies in the school’s neighboring community.
- Student volunteers also provide empowerment-based education
to clients, such as nutrition education to children, healthy cooking
classes to families, and culinary job training to unemployed adults.
Nationally, The Campus Kitchens Project works on 12 campuses
across the country. We have provided more than 640,000 meals since
inception, and now serve nearly 13,000 meals each month.
