Ukraine Fundraiser

We support Ukraine and you can too!

Join us during the month of July as we work together with our staff, guests, and all our resources to help fundraise for World Central Kitchen, and support their efforts in Ukraine.

We are thrilled to be collecting and sending donations to World Central Kitchen, founded by Chef José Andrés, and serves food on the frontlines of crises around the world.

WCK has built the largest food relief operation in Ukraine, reaching more than 230 cities and towns, and is vital in supporting their efforts.

Vidrio is partnering up with all LM Restaurant dining concepts and working to raise a goal of $100,000 for Ukraine.

We will be working together in a number of ways to help fundraise during the month of July. We will be selling a special Ukraine cocktail, allowing guests to add donations onto their checks to support, and hosting benefit events to support the cause.

Our featured Ukraine Cocktail for the month of July will have 100% of the proceeds donated to World Central Kitchen.

Featured Ukraine Cocktail – $12

About World Central Kitchen

World Central Kitchen is a humanitarian relief program serving food on the frontlines of crises around the world, while also setting up food systems with locally-led solutions.

In Ukraine, they are serving hundreds of thousands of fresh meals each day, as well as distributing food kits by the tens of thousands—each containing enough ingredients to feed a family for about a week.

If you would like to help support this wonderful non-profit organization but are not local to visit one of our restaurants, you can donate on their website online.
