[Capital City Go-Go @CapitalCityGoGo]

An afternoon well spent at @dcck, preparing meals and giving back to our community 💙

.@dcck shows up for our neighbors every day, from serving nutritious meals in DC schools to helping people build culinary careers.

This week, there is a great opportunity to show up for DCCK.

Thursday’s Capital Food Fight at The Anthem will have a live chef competition, food and drinks from dozens of local restaurants and bars, and a lot of people coming together for great food and a great cause.

I joined a nationwide day of service to celebrate #CBCF50 & #50ActsIn50Cities on 10/28/26. I volunteered at DC Central Kitchen @dcck alongside its devoted front-line staff to cut, chop, peel and prep fresh produce for meals for non profits, youth programs & schools and shelters.

Two years with our doors open in Georgetown. Two years at Capital Food Fight. Proud to have @YalaGreek Ice Cream be part of this night supporting @DCCK and the work they do every day. See you November 12—and thank you, Zach, for all you do.

Hope you’ll join us!

[Zach Leonsis @ZacharyLeonsis]

Glad to be back around the table with my fellow @DCCK board members yesterday.

Serving on this board has given me a closer look at the care, effort, and vision behind every meal served and every student preparing for a culinary career. There’s an awesome way to support this team coming up: Capital Food Fight returns to The Anthem on November 12!

Grab some friends and come hungry! Support DCCK and get your tickets here: https://t.co/safdclxQzB

[Zach Leonsis @ZacharyLeonsis]

A meal can meet an immediate need. Learning to prepare one can help someone build a lasting career. @DCCK connects these two ideas every day.

The expansion at Buzzard Point will add classrooms, a produce market and a fast casual restaurant, which means more room to train people for culinary careers while bringing fresh and affordable food to the neighborhood.

Glad to see the spotlight on what the DCCK team is building. Take a look:

Sports organizations have a responsibility to be good citizens and good neighbors.

Throughout @MSE’s Summer of Service, our employees have prepared meals with @DCCK, assembled diaper bundles for families, helped restore Anacostia Park, and more.

This is what doing well and doing good looks like in practice. Many thanks to all of our employees who continue to show up and serve.

Purpose tells us WHAT we hope to achieve. Principles guide HOW we get there.

For 15 years, @dcck’s Healthy Corners has worked through local stores to expand healthy food access.

That’s community-led problem-solving and mutual benefit in practice.

Because HOW matters.
