Saffron Kitchen Project is about people, food, building community and creating lasting opportunities for vulnerable people in Athens. Food is about love, comfort and hospitality. There is a kindness in the practice of preparing meals for others, the perfect opportunity to make people feel welcome. We’re here to support each other, using food as the tool kit.

Drawing on many years of experience in the hospitality industry as well as the humanitarian sector we identified a need for access to nutritious food, professional training and job opportunities for refugees.

At Saffron Kitchen Project we aim to do exactly that. We cook meals together, provide specialised training and create opportunities for people with refugee backgrounds to support themselves and grow their own skill sets.
