"When we think of Chef Andrés and his incredible team at World Central Kitchen, we are reminded that even during a year of unimaginable hardship, there are so many wonderful people ready and willing to support each other—working tirelessly. The World Kitchen inspires. Through compassion in action. "

Sussex told Bloomberg that they hope to bring more partners to the World Central Kitchen, allowing non-profits to build more community relief centres. He also said that he would visit the centres prepared in the future after the COVID-19 epidemic subsided.
