On Monday, the world lost several members of the World Central Kitchen nonprofit organization in Gaza. These individuals were not just faceless or nameless, but they were dedicated humanitarian workers who had been providing aid to those in need. The news of their deaths has left many grieving for their loss and condemning the violence that led to their demise.
José Andrés, the celebrity chef and founder of World Central Kitchen, expressed his sorrow on Twitter for the loss of his colleagues. The organization released a statement on social media expressing its outrage at the tragedy and emphasizing that humanitarian aid workers should never be targeted.
World Central Kitchen was founded in 2010 by José Andrés with the mission of cooking and delivering meals to people in need following social and environmental disasters. The nonprofit has been at the forefront of providing aid during crises such as Hurricane Maria, which devastated Puerto Rico in 2017, and Haiti’s 2010 earthquake.
In an interview with Variety in 2022, José Andrés highlighted the importance of food as a necessity for humans, especially during emergencies. He also spoke about the ongoing crisis in Gaza, where violence and bombings have been ongoing since October 7 when terrorist attacks by Hamas led to a war with Israel.
The documentary “We Feed People” showcases the work of World Central Kitchen and its mission to provide food to those in need during times of crisis. José Andrés continues to advocate for food as a fundamental human need in difficult circumstances.
