Clean Plate Project

Club Description

The Clean Plate Project is a student-run organization facilitating local volunteering opportunities for the UVA community at the intersection of food and medicine. Our mission is to provide comfort and support to patients and their families at the University of Virginia Children’s Hospital by offering nutritious, home-cooked meals during their time of need. Through partnerships with the Ronald McDonald House and the Yellow Door Foundation, which provide long-term housing for families, we ensure that burdened families have access to meals while their children receive care at UVACH. We host weekly cooking sessions at the Ronald McDonald House and deliver meals to families supported by the Yellow Door Foundation. In addition to our service initiatives, the Clean Plate Project hosts regular social activities to build camaraderie and community amongst our members. We welcome you to join us in making a difference, and we hope to see you at our next event!
