Meet our intern, Rose D’Angelo!

February 5, 2009 – 12:36 pm

Rose D’Angelo, Marquette University sophomore, shares a little bit about her experience with the Campus Kitchen:

“This is my second year on the leadership team and I’ve been privileged to work as an intern here and also at the Campus Kitchen at Northwestern University. I’m a sandwich professional now after making well over 5,000 this summer!

Working with the Campus Kitchen has been such a great experience for me and I encourage everyone to give it try. You not only gain a sense of servitude, fellowship, and community awareness, but you also can apply the valuable lessons you learn on a shift to your everyday life! I mean did you ever wonder if it’s ok to eat that pizza you left overnight on your dorm room floor?

The Campus Kitchen has so much to offer with leadership positions, internships, and job training. So, please stop by and give it a try!”

Rose D'angelo has been the Campus Kitchen at Marquette since Fall 2008. She is currently a sophomore at Marquette studying Social Welfare and Justice. Rose has also interned at the Campus Kitchen at Northwestern University.

2008 in review

January 7, 2009 – 9:16 am

2008 brought big changes to the Campus Kitchen at Marquette. Here is a recap:

1) New coordinator

In April 2008, Jen Filz joined the staff of The Campus Kitchens Project as the new coordinator of the Campus Kitchen at Marquette (CKMU). Jen spent two years working as an Americorps VISTA at Alverno College coordinating service-learning projects before coming to CKMU.

2) New kitchen

In July 2008, CKMU made the move from Schroeder Dining Hall to Mashuda Dining Hall on the Marquette Campus. Mashuda is home to Sodexo “Hero of Everyday Life” and CKMU supporter Sharon Hope. Sharon is always willing to give students recipe ideas and help out wherever she is needed. We are happy to be working so closely with her!

3) New Partnerships:

In 2008 the Campus Kitchen at Marquette continued its meal expansion.  This year CKMU started meal delivery to Ascension Lutheran and Bethany Calvary churches, two Goodwill meal sites.

In addition, the Campus Kitchen started a partnership with the Westside Health Clinic. The partnership began as a nutrition education program run by our intern Rose D’Angelo and will be continuing in 2009.

4) Culinary  Job Training:

The Campus Kitchen at Marquette offered two sessions of Culinary Job Training to teach basic food service skills to unemployed Milwaukee residents. Nine of the 10 graduates received their Servsafe certification.

5) Turkeypalooza

In 2008, the Campus Kitchen delivered hearty Thanksgiving meals to all of our regular community partners. In addition, the Campus Kitchen also delivered 58 bags of groceries. Thanks to all who volunteered or donated to this event!

Turkeypalooza right around the corner!

November 6, 2008 – 11:42 am

Thanksgiving is right around the corner and the Campus Kitchen at Marquette is preparing over 300 meals for the Milwaukee area. Teaming up with Sodexo’s annual “Cans Across America” the Campus Kitchen hopes to prepare all the meals with donations from the Marquette community and beyond. Cooking for Turkeypalooza will be done Saturday November 22 and Sunday November 23rd. For more information, or to get involved please contact Jen Filz at jfilz@campuskitchens.org.
