World Central Kitchen (WCK) has significantly expanded its humanitarian response to the devastating earthquakes that struck Venezuela on June 24 by launching a new high-capacity field kitchen capable of preparing up to 30,000 fresh meals per day for affected communities. According to the press release, Working alongside 42 local restaurant partners across Miranda (Caracas), La Guaira, and Carabobo, WCK is reaching communities in the hardest-hit areas through 64 distribution sites. Our teams are serving hot meals, sandwiches, arepas, hot dogs, burgers, water, and ice, while expanding food truck operations and increasing daily meal production.

Located near the communities hardest hit in La Guaira, the new field kitchen began operations on Thursday, July 2, and is scaling up production each day. The site includes kitchen and logistics facilities and is supported by dozens of local workers and volunteers whose efforts are helping strengthen WCK’s response on the ground. The goal of the new kitchen is to bring large-scale meal production closer to affected families, with the capacity to produce 30,000 meals per day. At the same time, WCK’s network of restaurant partners in Caracas and surrounding areas continues to play a vital role, preparing culturally appropriate meals and ensuring sustained coverage throughout the capital and neighboring communities.

Current assessments indicate that thousands of people continue to require humanitarian food assistance. WCK is coordinating closely with local partners and other humanitarian organizations to maximize coverage while avoiding duplication of efforts.
