World Central Kitchen’s Relief Team is on the ground in Chile, providing meals in and around Concepción as deadly wildfires forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate their homes.
Chilean President Gabriel Boric declared a state of catastrophe in two regions in mid-January.
World Central Kitchen has responded in Chile multiple times, most recently during wildfire emergencies in 2024 and 2023. Today, WCK is working alongside a strong network of local restaurant and chef partners to provide immediate support.
Chileans have incredible energy and resilience.
Juan Camilo, WCK Response Director
As the recovery efforts continue, we are relying heavily on local partners and volunteers like Marcelita, who have been fueling our efforts since the beginning of this response.
