par WORLD CENTRAL KITCHEN INCORPORATEDWCK's Relief Team is in Georgia responding to the Highway 82 Fire—a fast-moving blaze that has grown to more than 5,000 acres in less than a day, destroying 87 homes and threatening about 1,000 more.

By partnering with organizations on the ground and activating a network of food trucks or emergency kitchens, WCK provides freshly made, nutritious meals to communities impacted by disasters quickly and effectively. We know that good food provides not only nourishment, but also comfort and hope, especially in times of crisis.
With over 600 million meals served globally, WCK continues to bring relief, one plate at a time. Your donation today fuels this mission—helping us reach more people, faster, when they need it most.
