To run a series of cooking classes/ demos showing Seniors how to prepare and cook health and nutritious meals on a limited budget. With the help of our ambassador Master Chef alumni Kumar Pereira we will be creating menus for simple one pot meals that can be prepared by Seniors with even basic cooking skills . Kumar will be running a series of cooking demos at our Beehive Industries premises in Palmer St Darlinghurst commencing in February 2016. We plan to create a special website for the program where will post recipes , cooking tips and short videos of each of the cooking classes.
We hope to show the many seniors that Beehive Industries supports plus others how to cook simple nutritious meals on a limited budget . With a target cost per meal of $6-7 .
W need help with raising funds to help us run the program . The money will be used to help us purchase induction cooktops for the classes , cooking benches , utensils , induction cooktop suitable cooking pots as well as ingredients and containers . Money is also required for the cost of setting up the website and purchasing some basic video camera and lighting equipment .
We are also looking for volunteer support to help us with filming and editing tasks as well as help with running the classes .
We hope to setup 6 cooking stations to allow us to work with 12 - 18 seniors at each cooking class / demo
Help in producing and editing the short 5 minute videos of each class will allow us to share the program with a much wider audience
