Welcome to The Pots and Pans Project!

Thank you for taking the time to check out what The Pots and Pans Project is all about!

Our mission is to reduce the barriers to home cooking and healthy eating for individuals and families transitioning out of shelters and into homes of their own by providing the tools necessary to cook at home. Cooking at home has a wide array of benefits and we want to help everyone take advantage of them.

How Does It Work?

The Pots and Pans Project collects donations of new or gently used kitchenwares or monetary donations that we then assemble into "starter kits". These starter kits have everything a new home cook would need to make and enjoy a meal at home. For more information on what goes into each starter kit, please see "How to Help".

After the donations have been collected and assembled into the starter kits, they are brought to partners in the community who distribute them to their clients.

We are so grateful for the community partners who help us to easily distribute these kits to those in need and for all the wonderful and thoughtful donations we receive.

Thank you for your interest in The Pots and Pans Project! Stay tuned for updates and recipe ideas we will be sharing.
