Martha's Kitchen

Mission Statement

Our mission is to provide nutritious meals with dignity to people in need by mobilizing volunteers and rescued food, ensuring no one is left behind.

Why Donate to Martha's Kitchen?

Over the past 45 years, Martha’s Kitchen has transformed into one of the region’s most trusted providers of food security. We prepare and distribute more than 1.2M meals every year, reaching communities across Santa Clara, San Benito, Santa Cruz, Fresno, and Monterey Counties. Through our hot meal service and food rescue efforts, we provide balanced meals that include proteins, fresh vegetables, and wholesome grains, because we believe food is not a luxury, but a fundamental human right. Alongside our network of 89 partner organizations, dedicated volunteers, and generous supporters, we meet people where they are: in schools, senior centers, shelters, and neighborhoods where hunger is most acute.
