WCK's Response to Flooding in Southeast Oregon (Apr. 2025)

In early April, a combination of heavy rains and melting snow overflowed a levee in Harney County, inundating nearby communities with historic levels of flooding. The flood surge has washed away homes, severely damaged local businesses, and prompted evacuation orders for communities throughout the region. The Burns Paiute Reservation, and WCK served 240 meals to provide support. Thankfully, local communities recovered quickly from the flooding disaster.

WCK is first to the frontlines, providing meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises. When disaster strikes, WCK’s Relief Team mobilizes to the frontlines with the urgency of now to start cooking and provide meals to people in need. By partnering with organizations on the ground and activating a network of food trucks or emergency kitchens, WCK provides freshly made, nutritious meals to communities impacted by disasters quickly and effectively. We know that good food provides not only nourishment, but also comfort and hope, especially in times of crisis.

WCK has provided more than 500 million fresh, nourishing meals for communities around the world. Your donation today will be used to support our emergency food relief efforts.
