Meal Program

Operating at two locations, Harambee Kitchen and Cross Roads Kitchen, the program serves meals six days a week, ensuring that those in need have access to a warm meal and a welcoming community. Volunteers play a crucial role in this effort, helping to prepare and serve meals while fostering a sense of community and support.
