McLean, VA – The Engle Group (TEG) volunteered at the DC Central Kitchen participating in the Kitchen’s on-going mission to reprocess over one ton of surplus food each day, that would otherwise go to waste, and turn it into 4,500 meals for the hungry in the greater Washington, DC region.
The Kitchen is founded on the premise that when fighting poverty, one must fight to win by using every resource available. Be it food, money, or people, the DC Kitchen hates to see wasted potential. Since its inception, DC Central Kitchen has used the kitchen as a central location to recover unused food, prepare and deliver meals to partner social service agencies, train and employ homeless men and women for the food service industry, and intellectually engage volunteers.
TEG applauds the mission of the DC Central Kitchen and is proud to have the opportunity to support the organization and the Washington community.
