DWC’s MOONLIGHT COOKING CLUBS
Benefiting the women of the Downtown Women’s Center!
Since 1978 the Downtown Women's Center on Los Angeles' Skid Row has been the warm, friendly homelike environment where homeless and formerly homeless women can come for needed services, social support and community. (Learn more about us at www.dwcweb.org)
How it works:
Help cook a meal to serve as lunch the next day in DWC’s Day Center. We’ll provide the recipe and guidance in cooking for a crowd! By bringing some of the needed ingredients for the meal you’ll help defray the Center’s food costs and see exactly where your donation goes. No regular attendance is required—you can simply sign up for the meetings that work for your schedule!
How it helps
• Provides a nutritious and delicious meal for homeless women
• Defrays the Center’s food budget
• Raises community awareness
Why You’ll Like It
• It’s fun
• It’s an opportunity to meet new people
• You’ll be doing something nice for people in need.
