Bucher's nonprofit Feed the Fridge is one of Washington's few pandemic-born emergency response organizations that's still active and expanding.
Driving the news: Bucher placed five new "community fridges" in Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Washington (BGCGW) locations this month, which are expected to feed anywhere from 25 to 100 families a day.
That amounts to a total of 6,000 meals this summer, a time when D.C. kids can go hungry with school lunch off the table. How it works: Feed the Fridge uses donations to pay restaurants like Lebanese Taverna, which in turn stock a dozen-odd fridges in community centers and schools with free, nutritious meals. On Fridays, partner Charlie Palmer dishes up steak dinners.
