Maine Points: Cooking For Community

Danny speaks with Ellie Linen Low & Dr. Caroline Teschke from Cooking For Community. Cooking for Community is a Portland, Maine-based, grassroots organization that raises money to hire local restaurants that need work to prepare healthy meals for people who need food. Their social service affiliates then distribute these comforting meals to the underserved in our communities, creating a matrix of outreach no single entity could deliver alone.
