World Central Kitchen’s Relief Team is en route to the southern Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul to assess food and water needs amid some of the worst-ever flooding to hit the region.
Destruction caused by floodwaters has killed at least 150 people and displaced more than 500,000. An estimated 77,000 people remain in shelters across the region and are in need of support. Stay up to date on our response by visiting wck.org.
WCK is first to the frontlines, providing meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises. When disaster strikes, WCK’s Relief Team mobilizes to the frontlines with the urgency of now to start cooking and provide meals to people in need. By partnering with organizations on the ground and activating a network of local restaurants, food trucks, or emergency kitchens, WCK serves comforting meals to survivors of disasters quickly and effectively. We know that good food provides not only nourishment, but also comfort and hope, especially in times of crisis.
