    Description

    Passionate about home cooking and nutritious food? Come cook with us!

    18 Reasons is a non-profit cooking school that offers free cooking, budgeting, and nutrition classes across the Bay Area through our Cooking Matters program. Volunteers are part of a team that teach a full six week series as either a volunteer chef, nutritionist, or class assistant. The only requirements are an interest in healthy eating & cooking, a willingness to learn, and a positive attitude. You can read more about volunteering on ourwebpage, here.

    We are seeking volunteers to join our Cooking Matters teaching team as volunteer cooking educators, nutrition educators, or class assistants! There is no professional experience required to volunteer, just an interest in healthy eating & cooking, a willingness to learn, and a positive attitude.

    We have volunteer opportunities in SF, Contra Costa, and Alameda counties.

    To learn more, visit our website at 18reasons.org/pages/volunteer-with-cooking-matters or reach out to us at cookingmattersvolunteers@18reasons.org.
