Your generosity speaks for them

More Than a Meal
A Helping Hand When Our Neighbors Need It Most

Community Health and Education Foundation (CHEF) is proud to partner with Open Heart Kitchen to help strengthen its vital work addressing food insecurity and homelessness throughout the Tri-Valley.

During the More Than a Meal campaign, CHEF will match every donation at 50%—so a $100 gift becomes $150 in support for Open Heart Kitchen. CHEF also covers all administrative and processing fees, allowing your donation and the full match to go directly toward making an impact.

More Than Food on the Table

Open Heart Kitchen has become a regional leader in providing critical support and developing solutions for individuals and families facing food insecurity and homelessness.

Its work goes beyond providing a meal. It offers a helping hand to neighbors facing difficult circumstances—providing nourishment, support, dignity, and greater stability when they need it most.

Meeting a Growing Need

As more of our neighbors struggle to make ends meet, the need for these services continues to grow. At the same time, government funding has become increasingly uncertain, making reliable community support more important than ever.

Funds raised through this matching campaign will help Open Heart Kitchen continue providing essential services and ensure that a lack of funding does not stand in the way of helping someone in need.

Make Your Gift Go 50% Further

Together, we can help strengthen the well-being and stability of our neighbors and build a Tri-Valley where individuals and families have the support they need to thrive.

Give today and CHEF will add 50% to your donation—turning your generosity into even greater impact for Open Heart Kitchen and the neighbors who depend on its services.
