On May 18, 2014, a group of Texas Exes gathered at DC Central Kitchen to volunteer by giving back to the community. DC Central Kitchen fights hunger in Washington by preparing 5,000 meals every day which are distributed to nearby homeless shelters, transitional homes, and nonprofit organizations. As part of that effort, our volunteers helped with food preparation in a friendly and fun environment, all while chatting and getting to know each other. It was a great event, and we look forward to scheduling another volunteer shift at DC Central Kitchen soon!

Texas Exes DC Chapter will be volunteering at DC Central Kitchen on May 18 from 9 am to 12 pm.  Come join your fellow Longhorns as we help prepare meals by cutting, chopping, and peeling thousands of pounds of food.  DC Central Kitchen helps families in the DC area by reducing hunger with recycled food, training unemployed adults for culinary careers, serving healthy school meals, and rebuilding urban food systems through social enterprise.
