At our headquarters, CORE Kitchen, we preferentially hire formerly incarcerated people. We've all been given second chances our whole lives, but if you've been in prison, you never get them. You leave prison with no money, no bank account, no cell phone...how can you get an apartment? how can you get a job? We believe your dreams, not your mistakes, should define you.

Since 2013 we've given more than 37,000 healthy meals to women and children in need in the Bay Area.  We believe healthy food is a human right!
