Each series of classes meet once a week for six weeks. Each class is two hours long, and is taught by a volunteer team consisting of a chef, a nutrition instructor, and a class assistant. We seek out volunteers with skills in cooking and nutrition to teach these classes. Cooking Matters classes are held at locations that offer other services to low-income families, such as shelters, schools, clinics, community centers, and subsidized housing sites. These agencies and organizations recruit participants for the classes, and we bring the volunteers, food, curricula, and cooking equipment. At the end of each six-week series, we conduct an evaluation that measures positive behavior changes including increased consumption of fruits and vegetables, and an increased use of nutrition skills and knowledge when making decisions about food. In 2016, we conducted 120 six-week series of classes, taught by approximately 200 volunteers, at 42 different locations throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, reaching over 2,000 people. 301882 25000 247478 Our second largest program is our Community Cooking School, where community residents can take basic cooking classes, attend community dinners, and learn about food, cooking, and social issues surrounding food. Over 1,000 people attended classes and programming at our Community Cooking School in 2016. Classes are offered on a fee-for-service basis, with scholarships and sliding scale fees offered for each class. All proceeds from the class benefit the Cooking Matters Program. 873202 true false false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false 0 0 false 1 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 9 0 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true false false true true false X X Sarah Nelson 4155682710 3150 18th St Ste 315 San Francisco CA 94110 X Aaron Hardisty President 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Hollie Greene Vice President 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Calvin Tsay Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Anna Ghosh Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Sam Mogannam Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Susan Norris Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Susanna Poon Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Patricia Farrar-Rivas Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jessica Meksavan Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sarah Nelson Executive Director 50.00 0.00 X 83750 0 0 83750 0 false false false 0 15547 116382 259830 391759 18th St 224207 224207 Cooking Matters 57286 57286 281493 23 23 0 0 153289 153289 153289 153289 0 22873 22873 0 0 Food & Bev Sales 2334 2334 Merchandise Sales 5410 5410 Non-Sales Tax Income 2275 2275 -20 -20 9999 859436 153289 23 291492 X 0 0 0 0 83750 83750 0 216163 216163 0 37398 37398 25976 25976 0 0 5863 5863 0 0 0 241680 216165 17947 7568 702 702 0 0 0 52300 51940 360 18623 18241 382 0 0 0 0 2342 2342 1853 1853 Food Costs 188157 186021 380 1756 Supplies & Equipment 25004 24761 94 149 Fundraising 13463 13463 Retail COGS 6525 6525 19525 6262 12838 425 939324 873202 42059 24063 272336 243441 0 0 48575 43212 0 0 0 0 0 16391 3512 15222 12879 0 0 0 0 47189 5765 383322 305297 7570 1001 8823 17255 16393 18256 X 262750 236412 104179 50629 366929 287041 383322 305297 -79888 X true X false false false X 39959 356660 749702 447432 470851 2064604 0 0 39959 356660 749702 447432 470851 2064604 0 2064604 0 0 0 2064604 1.00000 X 16391 3512 12879 12879 Gift Certificates 12318 Sales Tax Payable 4937 17255 X false CA Master Chefs at Home 22873 22873 22873 22873 22873 Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b: Form 990 Review Process No review was or will be conducted.
