At Project Feast, food brings people to the table, transforms lives, and fosters mutual understandings across diverse cultures. We believe that immigrants and refugees possess incomparable wisdom, skills and knowledge to contribute to our communities.
Washington State welcomes thousands of refugees and immigrants every year. Too often our immigrant and refugee communities feel marginalized as opportunities to prosper remain out of reach. As a result, an alarming number of new immigrants and refugees from these countries suffer higher levels of unemployment and earn far less than their native-born counterparts, making it a challenge to support their families.
Not only do we empower amazing cooks from around the globe by equipping them with the hands-on culinary training to gain their footing in the food industry, we also connect them to opportunities to make a living and share their wealth of food knowledge with our greater Seattle community. In the process, our participants become deeply integrated into local communities and economies.
