#MemberSpotlight: The Trae Young Family Foundation donated $50,000 to @dcck, supporting its mission to use food as a tool for community building, job training, and hunger relief in Washington, D.C. Learn more at NBA. https://t.co/ZbrQp43jpU
The @dcck is a robust non-profit that's been around for 36 years providing distinguished culinary job training while providing free meals for the disadvantaged.
Yesterday, our staff got to volunteer their time and efforts there in support of their day's food prep.
We believe volunteering as an organization is a great way to build staff cohesiveness while giving back. Bonus when it's in support of a cause in the ag or food systems space!

As part of the #craigstable initiative in 2023, @DCCK expanded their partnership with Cook for Vets, doubling the nonprofit's meal deliveries! This #MilitaryAppreciationMonth marks three successful years of more meals to more vets! https://t.co/70yctCp22U
April marked continued momentum across @MSE. 📈
@TheTraeYoung and his foundation committed $100K to @dccapscholars and @DCCK, reinforcing the impact sports and athletes can make on our communities.
We launched EquipHER with the @WashMystics and @dcpublicschools to provide essential athletic gear to D.C. athletes and help more girls stay in the game.
We also welcomed @doriancraft as the new lead voice of Mystics basketball and are building toward a new season following the @WNBA Draft.
Real progress is taking place across our community, platforms, and teams – all centered on delivering for our fans. I’m excited for what’s ahead!
Need some good news? Celebrate the @dcck Culinary Job Training program graduates in this story from @wusa9! From a second chance to full-time work in one of DC’s best restaurants, it’s a reminder that jobs and opportunity can help fight hunger long-term. https://t.co/gVhXh7flSi
.@TheTraeYoung and the Trae Young Family Foundation's $100,000 commitment to @dccapscholars and @dcck is an investment in opportunity and the future of our community.
The contribution – $50,000 to each organization – will help expand access to higher education while also addressing hunger and workforce development across the city.
Grateful to Trae and his Foundation for recognizing and supporting the organizations that are making a real difference in D.C.
The Trae Young Family Foundation is donating $50,000 to the DC Central Kitchen (@dcck) and another $50,000 to the DC College Access Program (@dccapscholars). DC Central Kitchen fights hunger with culinary job training and school food programs, among other initiatives. The DC College Access Program helps District public high-school students earn college degrees with little to no debt.
Today, @TheTraeYoung and his foundation, the Trae Young Family Foundation, announced a combined $100,000 donation to @dccapscholars and @dcck.
This investment will have a meaningful impact on our city— helping to fund college access for DC students and combat hunger and poverty across our community.
Thank you to Trae and to the Foundation for supporting this important work!

On Feb. 12, for our 2026 Community Benefit Day, NASHP's DC office partnered with @DCCK, working alongside their team on food prep supporting local shelters and nonprofit partners.
Grateful for the opportunity to contribute.
The past week was a great reminder of the power of showing up.
Our team volunteered with DC Central Kitchen, supporting their incredible work to fight hunger and create opportunity across D.C. That momentum carried into the first @dcck board meeting of 2026, where the commitment to long-term impact and service was clear.
Proud to support an organization making our city stronger every day.
