ORGANIZATION DESCRIPTION:

Sprouts is a nonprofit that teaches kids from all socioeconomic backgrounds what REAL food is all about. We do this through hands-on cooking with REAL chefs from hotshot restaurants like Tartine Bakery, Delfina, and Boulevard and with the support of Jamie Oliver and the endorsement of Alice Waters on our advisory board!

We fulfill our mission through 5 main programs:

• Free Classes at Girls Inc for in-need young girls

• After School Cooking Classes for Bay Area students from all backgrounds

• Classes and Camps on weekends and school breaks for diverse Bay Area youth

• Chef-in-training Internships for at-risk young adults that want to change their lives around through a culinary career

• Classes for children with special needs

We achieve our mission thanks to the dedication of 13 full and part-time team members, 10 interns, 20+ volunteers, and 100+ local chefs.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY DESCRIPTION:

Sprouts is looking for an enthusiastic, culinary or nutritional enthusiast to help our Sprouts Chef Instructors lead a 3 hour pizza themed birthday party in Oakland! Birthday parties are a ton of fun, and the kids are always jazzed to learn new recipes and taste new ingredients! No formal cooking experience is required - just a love for working with kids and trying new recipes!

At the end of the birthday party, every child will enjoy the pizza that they made and, if you're lucky, have some to take home to share!

All skill levels welcome!
