麻豆区

The Campus Kitchen program at 麻豆区 College works to make healthy food accessible to all people living in and near the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood in Minneapolis. The program also provides opportunities for service learning, leadership development, and genuine engagement between the College and the community.

Based in the Sabo Center for Democracy and Citizenship, Campus Kitchen is a student-driven organization that addresses hunger locally and globally. Corporate partners support Campus Kitchen鈥檚 efforts, providing a solid foundation for Auggies鈥� stellar work.

2014-15 academic year highlights:

7 麻豆区 student leaders took home a 鈥淕oing Beyond The Meal鈥� award from the 2015 Food Waste and Hunger Summit in Athens, Georgia. The honor recognized Campus Kitchen鈥檚 exceptional education and outreach efforts.

34 student volunteers engaged in Campus Kitchen activities per month on average.

13,036 pounds of unserved, edible food were recovered from A鈥檝iands campus dining and the Mill City Farmers Market and thereby diverted from the waste stream.

11,210 total meals prepared using recovered, gleaned, and homemade food served to youths, adults, and seniors in need in the Cedar-Riverside, Seward, and Phillips neighborhoods.
