Nicholas Doran's personal struggles with poverty and love for food inspired him to create Meals in Motion, a nonprofit that fights food insecurities by providing free cooking classes to families.
A San Fernando Valley nonprofit is helping families fight food insecurity by providing cooking classes free of charge.The skillets are hot and the chicken is sizzling as families cook together at Valley Presbyterian Hospital in Van Nuys for a hands-on experience with nonprofit Meals in Motion."Our mission is to give them knowledge and tools that they can use in their everyday life to fight food insecurity and poverty," said Meals in Motion founder Nicholas Doran.
"Being able to cook my own food, being able to have the knowledge of how to shop for the right foods really helped me stay full first of all so I wasn't hungry," Doran said. "But it just became something I could enjoy. So I wanted to share that and the benefits go far beyond the kitchen." "We took simple chicken, garlic and cream and I don't think I saw a plate with food left on it, so it must have been a hit," Doran said.
