World Central Kitchen, owned by the celebrity chef José Andrés, sets up field kitchens globally to feed thousands of people fresh, often hot meals at the scene of a pandemic, hurricane, earthquake, tornado or flood. In addition, WCK is active in dozens of American cities providing over 250,000 fresh meals every day.

As soon as the current Ukraine conflict erupted, WCK were on the Ukraine border working at a 24-hour pedestrian border crossing in southern Poland, serving hot, nourishing meals. Now, they’ve expanded their efforts to serve people across the region in Romania, Moldova, and Hungary. WCK is also partnering with restaurants inside of Ukraine to get hot meals to anyone in need.

The GoldenPeaks Foundation are long-time supporters of WCK and are honoured to be contributing to WCK’s efforts to provide food for as many vulnerable people as possible in the Ukraine crisis zone.

Reporting on the WCK initiative on March 1st , The Washington Posts states:

“The nonprofit, which found its purpose on Puerto Rico in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria, has established outposts at eight border crossings in Poland, where they have already served more than 37,000 meals to refugees. WCK is also financially supporting restaurants in five cities and two border crossings inside Ukraine…”

At the time of writing The GoldenPeaks Capital Foundation is supporting 10 different initiatives within and outside the Ukraine to help relieve the humanitarian crisis there.
