Help Roberti Community House feed families in need! We are looking for people who love working in the kitchen, creating new dishes and otherwise feeding nutrient dense food to folks who don’t always have access to it.
Every week we rescue almost 1000 lbs of fresh meat, dairy, fruit and vegetables and, in turn, create amazing, scratch meals for over 500 people. Our volunteers help with receiving, storing and processing our raw ingredients; planning menus; creating meals and delivering to our partners. All are invited to come help feed the community!
Our partners include folks picking-up food staples, nonprofits distributing meals to food insecure communities and other non and for-profit entities working to ensure and improve the safety and well-being of Waukegan and surrounding areas. Our food is always served with dignity and the ever present message that, if sourced and prepared properly, food can improve our individual and public health. Come cook with us.
An short orientation is required to work in the kitchen and training is ongoing as we discover new foods, food combinations and flavors.
