Ukraine: Seeds of Hope [Video]

Attacks and lack of access to seeds since the Russian invasion began has kept Ukrainians from cultivating home gardens and growing their own food. WCK has distributed seed packets through our Seeds of Hope program to people like Larysa, who used the vegetables she grew to welcome our team into her home with bowls of fresh borsch. #WCK #WorldCentralKitchen #ChefsForUkraine #Ukraine #nonprofit #borscht __Founded in 2010 by Chef José Andrés, World Central Kitchen (WCK) is a nonprofit organization that is first to the frontlines providing fresh meals in response to crises, while working to build resilient food systems with locally led solutions.

Meet the restaurants feeding Ukrainians impacted by the war [Video]

Support our efforts by making a donation: https://donate.wck.org/give/491532/#!/donation/checkout?c_src=restaurant-videoWithin days of serving our first meals to Ukrainian families fleeing for their safety, WCK began to build a network of restaurants that spanned the entire country, providing millions of meals to people in need. We addressed the crisis on two fronts by paying local restaurants to cook fresh meals for their neighbors in need—getting food to people impacted by Russia’s full scale invasion while at the same time keeping restaurants and their teams open and working. In doing so, we disbursed millions of dollars into the Ukrainian economy. Today, acute food needs in Ukraine have shifted to newly liberated and frontline communities. As a result, many of our restaurant partners in other parts of the country have reopened to the general public, buoyed by the support they received from WCK. #ChefsForUkraine __ Founded in 2010 by Chef José Andrés, World Central Kitchen (WCK) is a nonprofit organization that is first to the frontlines providing fresh meals in response to crises, while working to build resilient food systems with locally led solutions.

1 year of war in Ukraine: WCK serves 210 million meals [Video]

Support our efforts by making a donation: https://wck.org/donate Innocent Ukrainians have now lived under constant attack for 12 months—at least 42,000 people have lost their lives and approximately 14 million people are displaced. The situation remains unpredictable, but still, Ukranians continue to courageously stand for freedom and democracy every single day. WCK remains deeply committed to the people of Ukraine—we arrived in Poland within hours of the initial invasion, quickly expanding in Ukraine to build one of the largest food relief operations in the country. And this effort continues to be led by Ukrainians helping Ukrainians, ensuring food is not yet another thing that families have to worry about. Attacks are expected to escalate as spring approaches, so WCK will continue to work shoulder-to-shoulder with Ukraine’s Food Fighters to provide hope, comfort, and love, one plate of food at a time.#ChefsForUkraine__ Founded in 2010 by Chef José Andrés, World Central Kitchen (WCK) is a nonprofit organization that is first to the frontlines providing fresh meals in response to crises, while working to build resilient food systems with locally led solutions.
