During the summer months children lose access to breakfast and lunch served in schools which may be their only source of food for the day. At the Houston Food Bank's Keegan Kitchen facility, volunteers and Food Bank staff work side-by-side to prepare hot meals for children participating in the Kids Cafe after-school program.
Meal production is overseen by Chef Jose Montoya who, with many years of experience, brings skill and love to the food he prepares. Volunteers will assist with meal prep work (i.e. slicing, cutting, stirring, etc.) and the packaging of hot meals for daily distribution. The kind of work you'll do varies from day to day, so please be flexible about your work station. We might need to reassign you so we can work more efficiently!
Special Note: Volunteers MUST be at least 16 years old and supervised by parent or guardian throughout the shift.
