You can keep kids in northern New Mexico learning, cooking, and thriving! For 30 years, Cooking with Kids has brought hands-on nutrition education to classrooms—but with childhood hunger among the highest in the nation and recent federal funding cuts, your support matters more than ever.

Cooking with Kids now serves kids and families in northern New Mexico as far east as Las Vegas and as far north as Dixon!
