Our Impact On The Community
Love this work that CHEF is doing at our school. We’ve heard so many cool stories already from families about how this is making a difference at home.
We cook together, we learn together, we shop together now, and it’s really brought us closer together in the kitchen and at the table.
We've built a camaraderie and a community around food at our school through the CHEF program.
Since I’ve been in the CHEF program, I’ve learned many new ways on making new foods and helping myself be healthy.
