    From Foodie to Do Goodie: Cook for a Cause

    "Turning Your Love for Food into a deliciou Mission"

    Are you a food enthusiast with a heart for making a difference?

    Imagine this...you, the passionate foodie, transforming your culinary skills into an incredible act of kindness.

    Gather 5-8 of your favorite people and make a difference in the lives of those experiencing homelessness. Here's how:

    1. Plan your menu using your favorite delicious recipes
    2. Purchase groceries
    3. Cook and serve a meal at Noon to approximately 35 shelter guests

    Lunch for 35 people costs about $200, depending on the menu.

    We've got your back every step of the way, from menu planning to kitchen orientation. Let's make it a memorable and rewarding experience!

    Reach out to Aaron at aramos@simpsonhousing.org for updated guidelines and procedures. Your help matters. #MealForHope #VolunteerWithHeart"
