Over the past 18 years, volunteers have been critical to help us cultivate low-income food entrepreneurs as they formalize and grow their businesses.
After looking at our most critical volunteer needs, we've identified specific roles that would make the most impact for our entrepreneurs and our organization at this time: Please review the link for each skillset that will describe the duties and requirements.
Food Photographers: We are seeking passionate photographers who can provide on-call food photography services, preferably with prior food photography experience and food staging and editing knowledge (for example, Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, CaptureOne). A diverse portfolio with examples of food/life photography is required, and volunteers must be able to visit entrepreneurs on site in San Francisco. here.

Mission Statement
The mission of La Cocina is to cultivate low-income food entrepreneurs as they formalize and grow their businesses by providing affordable commercial kitchen space, industry-specific technical assistance and access to market and capital opportunities. We focus primarily on women from communities of color and immigrant communities. Our vision is that entrepreneurs will become economically self-sufficient and contribute to a vibrant economy doing what they love to do.
Description
San Francisco’s First Incubator Kitchen
La Cocina is a ground-breaking business incubator designed to reduce the obstacles that often prevent entrepreneurs from creating successful and sustainable small businesses. By providing shared resources and an array of industry-specific services, business incubators ensure small businesses can succeed. La Cocina follows this model by providing commercial kitchen space and technical assistance focusing on low-income women and immigrant entrepreneurs who are launching, growing and formalizing food businesses.
Breaking Down Barriers
The food industry has a notoriously high cost of entry: the fees for licensed and insured commercial kitchen space, the start-up costs to open a restaurant, the standards set to compete for shelf space at specialty stores and large retailers. Such restrictive barriers to entry often discourage burgeoning food entrepreneurs from launching a business. Those who do face an uphill battle for success in an overwhelming and incredibly crowded marketplace.
La Cocina provides a platform for these motivated entrepreneurs to hone their skills and successfully transition into the highly regulated and competitive food industry.
