MayDay Kitchen goes live

 in Black History Month

Omni Board member Alex Tripodi has a passion for feeding people. It used to come out as he cooked for his family, and in his work at fine dining restaurants. But when the covid thing started, he and his food-service industry co-workers were getting laid off. He realized real hunger was now at the door. Alex and a group of other volunteers started MayDay Kitchen to help meet some of that need. You’ll hear more about MayDay Kitchen soon. Here’s a fun introduction from Kelly and Donna Mulhollan special for you.
