Call for Photographers & Videographers
High quality photography and videography is an integral part of World Central Kitchen’s approach to storytelling. As our teams deploy worldwide, we are always looking for local photographers and videographers who can join our Response Corps as an independent contractor whenever needed to capture the work on the ground. The nature of our work is unpredictable, so submitting your information is not a guarantee that we will reach out.
About World Central Kitchen
Founded in 2010 by Chef José Andrés, World Central Kitchen (WCK) is a nonprofit organization that is first to the frontlines providing fresh meals in response to crises. Applying our model of quick action, leveraging local resources, and adapting in real time, WCK has served more than 500 million nourishing meals around the world.
When disaster strikes, WCK’s Relief Team mobilizes with the urgency of now to start cooking and serving meals to people in need. By partnering with organizations on the ground and activating a network of local restaurants, food trucks, and emergency kitchens, WCK serves comforting meals to survivors of disasters quickly and effectively. To support regional economies, WCK prioritizes purchasing local ingredients to cook with or distribute directly to families in need.
We know that good food provides not only nourishment, but also comfort and hope, especially in times of crisis. Learn more at wck.org.
