Feeding Lubbock Families for Christmas
Donation protected
My name is Vance, and I am a chef.
I became a chef to simply share food with people. However, through my obsession with working with food over the years, it has been easy to lose focus of what got me cooking in the first place, through the ever-pressing of my own culinary boundaries and compulsions to out work myself. The art and beauty of cooking is something I will always be passionate about, but the simplicity of nourishing people with my food will always be at the base of whatever may be created from it.
I am fortunate beyond all that I ever could have asked for this holiday season, and I have an obligation to share that with the good families of my community that may not be in a position to provide something as simple but essential as a nice meal for themselves and their loved ones this Christmas.
My goal is to be able to provide 50 families with a high quality, fully cooked, ready to heat dinner this Christmas, free of charge. In order to reach that goal, I need the help of each and every one of you in acquiring the ingredients that I will prepare, package, and deliver to those in need.
Whatever you can possibly donate will be immensely helpful, and 100% of your donations will go toward the purchase of ingredients for these dinners. The labor is 100% voluntary, and absolutely no part of these donations will go to "paying me". Anything extra that may be raised will go directly to local non profit organizations such as East Lubbock Art House and Lubbock Impact.
Thank you all in advance, and take care.
