Cooking up a better tomorrow in Montgomery County

Welcome to Our Giving Kitchen—where Jewish young professionals in Montgomery County come together to cook up change and nourish our neighbors in need—one delicious, homemade meal at a time.

Get Cooking

1 in 7 Montgomery County children face hunger. Together, we can change that.

Right now, over 300,000 of our Montgomery County neighbors face food insecurity, and Montgomery County. Behind these heartbreaking statistics are real families struggling to put fresh, nutritious meals on their tables.

At Our Giving Kitchen, we believe in the power of community and the joy of giving. Every two weeks, do-gooders across Dallas gather in our kitchen to prepare fresh, nutritious meals that get delivered to neighbors in need the very same day.

Our recipe?

Fresh ingredients, volunteer cooks, and a heart to serve

We're not your typical soup kitchen or food pantry. We're an inclusive, non-denominational extension of the Montgomery County Jewish community that welcomes volunteers of all backgrounds for a hands-on, interactive way to give back to our community.

♥ FRESH MEALS MADE WITH LOVE

Every nutritious meal is made from scratch using high-quality ingredients and delivered the same day to local families in need. No preservatives, no cans—just wholesome food with heart.

♥ NOT YOUR GRANDMA'S VOLUNTEER GIG

No boring food drives or assembly lines here. Every OGK session offers an engaging, interactive experience that's anything but ordinary. Roll up your sleeves, make new friends, and feel great about giving back.

♥ PARTNERING FOR IMPACT

We team up with food banks, shelters, community centers, and places of worship across Montgomery County to get fresh meals directly to families who need them most, building bridges and maximizing our impact.
