Cooking Matters is in search of fun spirited and caring volunteers to help with our weekly class.
Once a week, we meet for two hours with a group of participants and teach nutrition education and basic cooking skills. This is to help people learn how to prepare healthy meals on a budget
The first hour of class is spent learning nutrition education. The second hour is spent cooking in class, and eating the meal we prepared in class.
As a volunteer, you will be helping prepare the meals, pack participant grocery bags, and interact with participants during class.
Every class you get a FREE meal, and get to learn about nutrition and cooking as well. It is fun and rewarding experience!

Mission Statement
At Care and Share Food Bank, our core purpose is to bridge the gap between hunger and abundance. Our mission is to provide food, partnering opportunities, and education to combat hunger and food insecurity in Southern Colorado communities. Our vision is an end to hunger in Southern Colorado.
Description
At Care and Share Food Bank, we believe that no one should go hungry. Every day, we provide food to our partner agencies across Southern Colorado for our neighbors in need because well-fed communities are better for us all. Care and Share exists to ensure that the one in seven Southern Coloradoans at risk of hunger have access to enough healthy and nutritious food to thrive. We know that children without adequate access to food cannot develop successfully, families cannot plan for their future, and seniors find it more difficult to remain independent.
As Southern Colorado's only food bank, Care and Share provides food to over 300 agencies; emergency shleters, food pantries and soup kitchens across our 31-county service area.CAUSE AREAS
