What is 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 350 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, or 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.

What is the Service Project?

The Service Project was born out of the generous nature of the AAA’s members and their desire to give back to the local communities in the cities where the Annual Meeting was held. 

Since 2011, on behalf of our members, AAA has supported local communities with donations of thousands of new backpacks filled with school supplies as well as monetary donations for programs supporting public school systems.  We have also supported global communities with monetary donations to organizations that provide essential emergency shelter and lifesaving equipment to families displaced due to natural disasters or humanitarian crises across the world. 

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of children and families! AAA thanks you for your donation to the Service Project!
