why kitchen?
why kitchen?
We imagine a world built not on handouts but on heartouts. Where charity is not merely a hidden lining of the communal fabric, but a proud tapestry of give and take. And where the need to tap into temporary assistance is no longer a sentence to lifelong neediness.
Because a father’s pride and self-worth begins with his ability to provide food, the family’s wellbeing always emanates from the kitchen. And we know that’s exactly the kind of giving Reb Shayala had made his life’s mission.
A 3D approach
to help a family make a 180°
grocery bills: cut
We carefully review each recipient’s food needs and pay their grocery bills for a set period of time, usually 4- 12 weeks
financial clarity: baked in
Our partners at Mesila meet with both spouses for a thorough education of how to manage income and expenses long term
career mobility: unfrozen
Our career-service affiliates work directly with each recipient to help negotiate higher pay or find new, more gainful employment
confidential intake
When mid-level earners go through temporary hardship, we aim to understand the why—whether they have large families and are underpaid or have lost their job after many years of stability.

opportunity calls
From streamlining family finances to renegotiating salaries to helping the breadwinner find a better-paying job, our affiliate organizations open every available door to opportunity.
cycle complete
With their dignity as breadwinner restored, recipients enjoy a new outlook and renewed energy to surmount their challenges. Soon they find themselves whole again, and even able to contribute back to Reb Shayala’s Kitchen.
