Quotes
“The solidarity movement that surrounds Les Cuisines Solidaires is remarkable. I am extremely proud of the tremendous work done by our partners, the chefs and their brigades. They have pulled off a real tour de force by cooking more than 800,000 meals in such a short period of time, thereby helping to feed many people and families in need. I'm also amazed at how mobilizing Les Cuisines Solidaires initiative is. Les Défis Solidaires, resulting from a partnership with Signature Pro, is another great demonstration of this solidarity.”
