Project Feast is a nonprofit social enterprise with 501(c)(3) status started in 2013. Our work demonstrates the remarkable power of food to nourish more than just the body. Refugees and immigrants to the United States have much to offer including knowledge of their culture and cuisine. Many are accomplished home cooks and have dreams of opening their own café, bakery or restaurant. We see in them great potential to not only provide for themselves but to ultimately become agents of change for others in their community.

Our programs are based on this core belief and we have adopted the following mission:
• To transform the lives of refugee and immigrant cooks by providing pathways to sustainable employment in the food industry.
• To enrich communities through intercultural exchange using food as a vehicle.

We recently launched a training cafe called Ubuntu Street Cafe in downtown Kent that enabled us to offer a 4 month intensive culinary apprenticeship to up to 7 participants at a time. Our program is also accredited by Highline College. In the near future, we see tremendous opportunity to take Project Feast to the next level through growing our community events as well as our partnerships with larger organizations.

Interested in helping grow and guide the organization in its fifth year? We are looking for new members from all walks of life and board experience, but we are especially interested in hearing from people with a background in the culinary and food industry, people with lived experience as immigrants and/or refugees, or who have worked with the immigrant and refugee communities, and those with experience in finance.

Ways that board members are involved include:
• Grant writing / fundraising
• Financial planning and oversight
• Strategic planning
• Marketing
• Networking on behalf of the organization and connecting us with corporate buyers for our wholesale
food production or for catering services
• Being mentors for those experiencing board membership for the first time
• Advocating for equity on behalf on the refugee/immigrant communities within Project Feast and on
a broader scale

The Project Feast board typically meets every other month. Between the board meetings, follow-up work and attending occasional Project Feast events, please plan for a time commitment of 10 hours a month.

If you are interested in learning more about board member opportunities at Project Feast, please contact Veena Prasad at veena@projectfeast.org

Frequently Asked Questions:

How many people should the meal serve?
Each shelter houses 10 women and children, so please plan on preparing food for at least ten people.

What type of meal should I prepare?
Our residents are not picky and love any variety of meals! You can prepare an entree only, or you can provide an entree with salad and a side. Please feel welcome to contact us at 847-680-1870 or volunteer@lakecountyhaven.org with additional questions. We can make recommendations based on your interests.

Do any of the residents have food allergies?
Occasionally, we may have residents with food allergies. If that is the case, our Volunteer Coordinator will contact you prior to your meal preparation week.

Will we be able to serve the meal to the residents?
Unfortunately, because of confidentiality purposes, all of our meal donations are "drop off only". If you are interested in seeing the shelter and learning more about the Haven, we would be happy to take you through the shelter for a tour. Please arrange tours by calling 847-680-1901.
