First Alert: WCK Relief Team Serving Meals to Federal Workers During Government Shutdown
World Central Kitchen’s Relief Team is supporting furloughed federal workers in Washington, D.C., as the U.S. government shutdown nears its fourth week.
On Monday, October 27, WCK foods truck will be stationed in D.C.’s Navy Yard southeast neighborhood from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., serving thousands of meals to federal employees and their families. Locations may change as needs evolve—the latest meal sites and times will be posted here.
In 2019, WCK launched our #ChefsForFeds initiative during what became the longest federal shutdown in U.S. history. That effort provided more than 100,000 meals to federal workers and their families in D.C. and, through partnerships with 400 restaurants in 35 states, served hundreds of thousands more meals nationwide.
This remains a quickly evolving situation. You can sign up to our newsletter to receive more information and follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Bluesky, and Facebook for real-time updates.
