In 2012, My Daughter’s Kitchen started by Maureen Fitzgerald began cooking classes to help students discover how to make meals from scratch.

After partnering with the Vetri Community Partnership, the program began to expand to an after-school cooking program and the program has expanded to schools across the years.

Making fresh foods on a low budget, students learn how to cook and prepare fresh tasty dishes for eight weeks in the fall and spring classes. They are able to make the meals from start to finish and then taste test the dishes in a family-style setting.

Now more than eighteen schools across Philadelphia are enjoying the after-school classes. Many teachers are getting involved as volunteers, and now some schools are able to offer two classes per week.
