New Home for Hot Meals

In order  to feed thousands regardless of conditions Hot Meals USA transports people, supplies, and equipment using trailers that can be pulled by pickups to the disaster location. Once there we set up a mobile kitchen capable of high volume cooking. We provide hot meals even when homes and neighborhood groceries have been destroyed. We feed first responders even in remote locations. We are able to produce 10,000 meals a day out of each cooking unit. We currently have three and so if we were to bring them all together we could produce 30,000 meals a day. That is how we feed people in times of disaster.
In order to continue to serve those in need in times of disaster, Hot Meals plans to operate 11 such cooking units positioned to correspond with the 10 FEMA zones across the US and one based here in our home base of Kearney, Nebraska.

Donate To Help Us Help Others.
The key next step to allow us to serve more people in times of need, is to build a home office/national base of operations right here in Kearney. We plan for it to be a prominent and permanent anchor to our community. This command center will enable us to track equipment,  volunteers and even food safety using remote temperature monitoring. It will serve as a base for preparing and provisioning the cooking units to send out when called upon. This preparation will involve cleaning and maintenance after each deployment. First responders and disaster victims deserve safe, nutritious, hot meals during difficult times.
 
The command center is needed at this time to serve more people impacted by disasters and to ensure good stewardship of the investments in mobile equipment and of the vital volunteer time that have been shared with Hot Meals to date. The building will consist of maintenance bays, refrigeration and freezer storage capacity, dry storage, office space for logistical support, and a testing & teaching kitchen.
