Wine Spectator: José Andrés And World Central Kitchen Provide Aid To Ukrainians

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has left millions displaced, hungry and in desperate need of help. Once again, José Andrés and World Central Kitchen (WCK) have come to the rescue during a crisis, providing 5 million meals to Ukraine’s refugees and to those still suffering within the country’s borders. (The latter group accounts for nearly half of the total meals served.)

“With one plate of food at a time, we may not end this war,” said Andrés in an April 3 tweet. “But at the very least we are going to make sure that people don’t suffer more.” From the first moments of the war, WCK was serving warm meals at a 24-hour border crossing in southern Poland, quickly expanding to eight crossings along the Polish border. The hunger-relief organization now operates at 41 crossings on Ukraine’s border, with a warehouse and field kitchen in Przemyśl, Poland. Wine Spectator has the full story.
