Philabundance Community Kitchen
Client Situation
For 20 years, Philabundance Community Kitchen (PCK) operated without a permanent space. This culinary training and life-skills program empowers adults with low to no income by preparing them for careers in foodservice. Beyond training, PCK provides more than 250,000 meals annually to Philadelphia’s most vulnerable residents through community partners and its own social enterprise, PCKatering. With demand growing, PCK needed a facility that could expand its reach, double student enrollment, extend the program length, and multiply meal production while also serving as a hub for the surrounding North Philadelphia community.
