Our Recipe
At Chabad's Kitchen of Kindness, we believe that food has the power to unite, nourish, and inspire. As a non-denominational kitchen, we bring together volunteers from all walks of life to prepare nutritious, tasty, and high-quality meals for those facing food insecurity in Chico and the surrounding areas.
Our mission goes beyond just meal preparation. It’s rooted in compassion and the belief that everyone deserves access to wholesome food and the comfort of knowing someone cares. Alongside our regular meals, we also assemble thoughtful care packages for students; offering support, encouragement, and a little taste of home during challenging times.
Whether you’re in need of a meal or looking to make a positive impact, we’re here for you.
At the Kitchen of Kindness, we believe in the power of giving and the difference it makes in our community.
Come be a part of something meaningful and help us make a difference, one meal, one package, one act of kindness at a time!
Kitchen of Kindness was created in honor of Rabbi Moshe Kotlarsky
and his lifelong mission to bring care and dignity to every Jew.
one meal, one note, one touch point of kindness at a time

Rooted in the Rebbe's Vision
Before Kitchen of Kindness packed its first pan of food, the Lubavitcher Rebbe was shaping how America feeds hungry families. When Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm felt stuck on the Agriculture Committee, the Rebbe encouraged her to use that “unwanted” assignment to make sure children and parents had food on the table, leading to the expansion of programs like SNAP and WIC.
Kitchen of Kindness is our local answer to that same call. Fresh, homemade kosher meals, delivered with dignity, to neighbors who need it. As Shirley Chisholm later said, “If not for the Rebbe, many more children in this country would go to bed hungry.”
