Global relief organization World Central Kitchen will distribute free meals for the public beginning at Noon on Sept. 30 at Bear's Smokehouse, 135 Coxe Ave. downtown, in the South Slope district, according to a local food outreach organization, Food Connection.

(snip)

Hearts with Hands will continue relief efforts by distributing food boxes and water from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Sept. 30 at the outreach ministry's outreach's warehouse, 850 Warren Wilson Road in Swannanoa. The organization intends to add hot meal food distribution later.

World Central Kitchen was founded by celebrity chef José Andrés in 2010 to provide fresh food on the frontlines of humanitarian disasters in the United States and around the world. The organization lost seven workers in a drone attack in Gaza earlier this year, causing it to temporarily pause its operations in the war-torn enclave.

The organization has teams in four states assessing needs and serving meals in the wake of Hurricane Helene, including Florida, Tennessee and Georgia.
