In the worst moments of humanity, the best of humanity shows up.

Myself, I've been in many.

I've been in Gaza, I've been in North Carolina, in Asheville.

There is the very big moral question.

Do we go or we don't go?

Do we watch from outside or we go and we try to help next to the people that are suffering?

We always believe at World Central Kitchen that progress

Locals know best.

So obviously very proud of World Central Kitchen, but I'm even prouder that the people of Gaza are feeding Gaza.

We have mobile bakeries.

We have three.

They are some of the best bakeries you can find anywhere in the world.

The government of Jordan helped us build them and ship them there.

But also we partner with local bakeries.

Why?

Because we need to be supporting the locals.

We have also six kitchens at World Central Kitchen that we do over 100,000 meals in each one of them.

But then we have more than 60 kitchen partners that help us reach every single part of Gaza.

Also, we have private restaurants.

that we support because it's very important that we start supporting local restaurants because we need to keep rebuilding the local infrastructure.
