Daily food preparation will support the growing needs of the greater Santa Cruz County community SCOTTS VALLEY, CALIF. (September 2, 2020) – In response to the rapidly growing needs resulting from the CZU Lightning Complex Fire and COVID-19 pandemic, 1440 Multiversity and Operation BBQ Relief have begun a two-week strategic partnership effective September 1, 2020, that provides support to the Santa Cruz County community and evacuees ravaged by these current crises.

1440 Multiversity is very proud to join forces with World Central Kitchen to prepare dinner for evacuees impacted by the CZU Lightning Complex fire that has ravaged our beautiful region. Led by Executive Chef Kenny Woods, 1440 Multiversity organized and deployed a culinary team to downtown Santa Cruz on Thurs., Aug. 27, where they mindfully prepared over 250 meals for first responders, displaced families, and other vulnerable individuals.

Food preparation is part of a two-phase partnership with the County of Santa Cruz to support the growing needs of the community.

During this unprecedented time, our priority at 1440 Multiversity is to protect the welfare and well-being of our community – with that in mind, we have made a poignant yet conscious decision to suspend all public and private events through May 14, 2020 at the recommendation of the CDC and other federal, state, and local agencies.
