success stories
After a traumatic past and struggles with addiction led her through our doors, Madeline was eager to begin a new chapter in our Foodservice Training program. Despite fears about her background, she discovered a welcoming environment that provided the opportunity to pursue her passion for culinary arts and nutrition education. She’s now stably employed and continues to encourage others through her compassion and dedication. Read more about Madeline's success here.

Each year, Chicago chef and restaurateur Bill Kim invites a team of fellow chefs to come together and prepare a free Thanksgiving meal at Inspiration Kitchens for residents of the West Side who are struggling with poverty and homelessness. Check out our Chefsgiving video here!
“The idea for Chefsgiving sprang from wanting to directly connect with the communities that these types of culinary events seek to give back to but rarely include and involve. By gathering together at the table, I know we can gain a better understanding of how we can best support our neighborhoods in need.” - Bill Kim
We are excited to share that we will be celebrating our 5th Annual Chefsgiving on November 14th by delivering 300 prepared meals directly to shelters on the West Side. Although this year's event might look a bit different logistically, the mission has remained the same - to provide a delicious, homemade Thanksgiving meal for community members in need!
GIVE A MEAL
Anyone who donates $25 or more will receive an e-cookbook with recipes from the chefs to make at home!
