WCK serves 10,000 meals in Nebraska after severe flooding
Following the severe flooding in the Midwest, WCK activated #ChefsForNebraska to provide hot meals to those displaced or in need.
WCK’s Chef Relief Team landed in Nebraska earlier this week to assess the damage and need after large amounts of rainfall, combined with rapid snowmelt, caused catastrophic flooding in the region. The flooding in the Midwest has killed at least three people and left thousands more displaced. Estimates for the cost of damage have hit $3 billion.
The team quickly identified a kitchen at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church in Fremont, Nebraska to begin cooking. On the first day of service, more than 1,000 hot and nutritious meals were delivered directly to impacted communities, including families currently living in hotels.
