In the first year, I was there like, what, 90 days or something like that of my life. I crossed into Ukraine within, I was in Poland within 24 hours, and I was in Ukraine within a week. I arrived in Kiev when still the Russian troops were in the north of the city, Bucha, Irpin. I remember with World Central Kitchen we were the first NGO used to arrive to Bucha European feeding people

We never stopped. We reached half a million meals a day in Ukraine. Wow. Very quickly. 500 restaurants. That all the money we had from donations from people in America that they cannot be more given and people in Europe. And we channel that money through supporting the local restaurants. If they are available, I'm not going to open my own kitchen.

The same dollar that is going to help feed the refugees or the displaced people. is the same dollar that can help maintain the local economy flourishing. Nobody's getting rich. But the restaurants want to help. The people want to help. That's what people don't understand in emergencies, that everybody wants to be part of the solution.

What World Central Kitchen does is that allows everybody to be part of the solution. In Asheville, there was no World Central Kitchen helping feed, even both other organizations feed the people of Asheville and the different parts in North Carolina and the couple of other states that were hit by the post-effects of the hurricane was the people of Asheville that helped feed the people of Asheville.

And we then got a helicopter because we wanted to be cool, or another helicopter, or another one, if we had to. It's because there was no roads. And the only way to arrive to the people was by helicopter, like we did in Bahamas. We had six helicopters, two seaplanes, one boat with two helipads. Why we did it? Because there was no airports, because there was no control towers in the north.

There were 16 islands. Everything was destroyed and we had to feed 80,000 people. The only way to do it was that way. Asheville, North Carolina was exactly the same. The fires in California were exactly the same. How we did it, for example, in California, in Los Angeles. We are there trying to make sure the firefighters eat. Not like the system doesn't take care of the firefighters.

It's in place. Somebody, some organization, some catering is on paper getting paid to do it. But that's a business.
