About

our Friendship Kitchen

The Friendship Kitchen in Las Vegas is a community-based initiative under the Friendship Circle of Las Vegas that brings together up to 50 volunteers—including individuals with disabilities—to prepare roughly 200 fresh, healthy meals bi-weekly for families facing food insecurity and those in need. Operating as a “beacon of light,” the program focuses on fostering inclusion while providing essential nutrition to the community.

The meals prepared are distributed to individuals facing food insecurity, including those in homeless shelters and other community programs.

Through the universal language of food we are building connections, spreading kindness, and making a lasting impact.
