Green Grocer Chefs' Choice Charity Program Benefits Cafe Momentum

Green Grocer continues its Chefs’ Choice Charity program in July, benefitting Chef Chad Houser’s Café Momentum, a program which teaches critical skills that allow youth to apply what they have been taught in pre-release programs in a safe, real-world environment of nurturing accountability.

 

On Tuesday July 1 from 5:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. Green Grocer features samples of Chef Houser’s braised grass-fed brisket taco with cilantro pesto and chevre, signature pressed juice as well as bites and sips from several Green Grocer partners. Additionally, Green Grocer has created a juice inspired by Chef Houser dubbed “The O.G” a blend of organic green apples, cucumber, jalapeno and kale. A portion of the proceeds from each will benefit Café Momentum through July 31.

 

The Chefs’ Choice Charity program features a new chef, menu item and juice each month with a portion of the proceeds donated to a favored non-profit.

 

Since January 2013, Green Grocer has become a neighborhood staple featuring organically grown and locally produced food products and specialty items. Close relationships with farmers and producers supports the local economy and decreases transportation costs and emissions and gives customers the freshest, most delicious foods available.

 

In partnership with Artizone.com, the local online order and home delivery service, Green Grocer products can be delivered direct to your door. Green Grocer is located at 3614 Greenville Avenue.

Cafe Momentum Chosen as Mission Partner for WOATS

WOATS, the indulgent and all-natural gently-baked soft Oatsnack has selected Café Momentum as a mission partner through October 31, 2013.  $1 from each bag of WOATS ordered on WOATS.com and $2 from each bag ordered via Artizone.com will benefit the program dedicated to equipping our communities’ most at-risk youth with life skills, education and work opportunities to impact the future course of a young life.

Inspired by a recent visit to Dallas County Youth Village, WOATS Oatsnack founder Justin Anderson will also speak to the young men about his personal journey and struggles and participate in conjunction with the nutrition program teaching the method of making oat-based snacks. 

“I was in awe and inspired by all of the work Chef Chad Houser and Café Momentum have in progress at Dallas County Youth Village,” says Justin. “It was a natural fit for WOATS. We want to inspire kids to discover and harness their passions, make a difference and change the world for the better.” 

Café Momentum is a restaurant training platform that provides post-release paid internships for juvenile offenders through which they will receive intensive culinary, job, and life-skill training as well as continued mentoring and support to foster successful re-entry into the community. In addition to significantly reducing recidivism, Café Momentum creates opportunities for long-term, sustainable (legal) employment for a demographic that would otherwise continue to burden the justice system and taxpayers. For more information go to www.CafeMomentum.org. 

WOATS is currently on shelves at Central Market and available at Artizone.com, the online shopping and home delivery service.  For more information about WOATS Oatsnack and to learn more about the WOATS Oatsnack mission please visit www.WOATS.com.
