Cooking With Kids
One of Cheryl’s favorite nonprofit organizations is Cooking with Kids. All children deserve the chance to eat delicious healthful real food and learn how to take care of themselves. In 1995, Cooking with Kids began offering no-cost culinary education to Santa Fe children. The organization educates and empowers kids and their families to make healthy eating choices through hands-on learning with fresh affordable foods. When kids help prepare healthy foods, they’re much more likely to eat and enjoy them.
