I've been a Chicago board member for just about a year now. Without a doubt, this organization is made up of dedicated, passionate, and action-oriented individuals -- employees of Common Threads and volunteer board members -- who work tirelessly to bring nutrition education and cultural awareness to youth. They way they quickly pivoted to virtual programming and events during the pandemic -- and continued to grow their impact as a results -- tells you all you need to know!
Common Threads has been an amazing non profit to be a part of. I have been on the board for almost four years now and the exec board for almost two. I have loved every minute of my experience from meeting new insightful people to volunteering in the schools as well as online. It is an amazing charity that gives something tangible to people that not only need the support, but also appreciate the support..
I've volunteered with Common Threads for the past 6 years and they do so much for communities in and around Chicago! Their after school cooking program gets kids excited about cooking while instilling practical skills in the kitchen and providing nutrition education. A fantastic organization!!
Common Threads has such an important mission of bringing kids together through their various backgrounds and the food they like-- and teaching kids the importance of eating healthy for their bodies and for the planet!
The CEO Linda is an outstanding and persistent and passionate leader and longtime social impact star!
