This trip changed the life of the successful chef and led him to found World Central Kitchen, a disaster-relief organisation that has fed more than 200 million people affected by natural disasters, the COVID pandemic, and war.

José Feeds the World by David Unger is a testament to the incredible impact one person can have when driven by passion and a desire to help others.
