Please join us in fighting hunger differently through a meal prep service project at DC Central Kitchen (DCCK). Now in its 31st year, DCCK's mission is to use food as a tool to strengthen bodies, empower minds, and build communities. DCCK fights daily hunger by preparing three million meals each year for the DC community and serving them to children and adults in need. Because DCCK serves prepared meals and not bags of groceries or crates of canned goods, we are committing a few hours of our time during the Annual Meeting to assist in meal preparation at the DC Central Kitchen main site at: 425 2nd Street NW, Washington, DC 20001.
Dress casually and meet to depart as a group via the Metro Red Line no later than 4:00 pm at the Marriott Wardman Park concierge desk in the main lobby. Our group must arrive 15 minutes prior to our 5:00 pm shift for orientation by DCCK; late arrivals will not be permitted. The closest Metro stop is Judiciary Square on the Red Line. From Judiciary Square 4th and D Street exit, head south on 4th Street NW, left on D Street NW, left on 1st Street NW, and then left into the service alley just south of Sandwiches by Phillip. The entrance to the kitchen looks like a service/delivery entrance and is marked by a large sign.
Participants will need to sign a waiver of liability to participate in this off-site project.
