The Community Kitchen is a food service program providing complimentary box lunches to in-need residents, families, and health care workers in Chicago. Currently, we provide 900 meals a week to local senior housing complexes, food pantries, hospital workers, and residents of Chicago. The Community Kitchen provides work to chefs, cooks, and front-of-house hospitality workers who have lost their businesses or full time / part-time employment due to the pandemic. We source proteins, produce, and baked goods from local farms and bakeries whenever possible. We utilize Marz and Kimski’s kitchen facilities to produce these healthy and delicious meals.

This is a project between Public Media Institute, Marz Community Brewing Co.,  and Community of the Future Inc., the parent company of Kimski and Maria’s Packaged Goods & Community Bar.
