NCO Caring Kitchen Project

We have an important update to share about our Caring Kitchen program.

After careful review, we will be closing Caring Kitchen on April 30, 2026, with meal delivery continuing through April 24.

This program has been built by an incredible community of volunteers and staff who brought care, consistency, and connection to every meal. We are deeply grateful for the impact this work has had across our community.

Caring Kitchen has meant so much to so many, and we share in the disappointment of this transition. We remain committed to supporting food access and will continue to look for ways to serve our community.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of Caring Kitchen. 💛
