The World Central Kitchen team is on our way to Armenia to support refugees who have fled Nagorno-Karabakh in recent days. The enclave was seized by Azerbaijan last week, forcing thousands of families to run.
Tens of thousands of people have recently fled into Armenia following increased hostilities with Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh. WCK's Relief Team is working with local contacts who have shared that there is an immediate need for food assistance among refugee populations, with the number of people in need expected to increase in the coming days.
WCK has established strong culinary partnerships in Armenia, and our team is currently en route to provide food and water to families in need.
WCK is first to the frontlines, providing meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises. When disaster strikes, WCK's Relief Team mobilizes to the frontlines with the urgency of now to start cooking and provide meals to people in need. By partnering with organizations on the ground and activating a network of local restaurants, food trucks, or emergency kitchens, WCK serves comforting meals to survivors of disasters quickly and effectively. We know that good food provides not only nourishment, but also comfort and hope, especially in times of crisis.
