Since its inception, DC Central Kitchen has used the kitchen as a central location to recover unused food, prepare and deliver meals to partner social service agencies, train and employ homeless men and women for the food service industry, and intellectually engage volunteers.

Development Gateway Foundation
Washington, DC
• KTDC has been awarded the design of the 2006 annual report for the Development Gateway Foundation (DGF) in English, French and Spanish.
The Development Gateway Foundation is an international nonprofit organization that provides Web-based platforms to make aid and development efforts more effective around the world. Thanks to the power of the Internet, organizations dedicated to reducing poverty in developing nations have the potential to touch the lives of more people than ever.
More than half a billion Internet users today are in developing countries, and their numbers continue to grow. As in richer nations, this once unimaginable resource is being harnessed, along with other information and communications technologies (ICT), to improve education, health, agriculture, government, and business — sometimes in surprising ways.
In 2005, a global consensus emerged on the urgency of fighting poverty around the world. International leaders pledged to double aid to Africa and cancel the debt of the world’s poorest countries. Together with developing countries, they also pledged to change how aid is delivered and managed, to ensure greater development impact.
DGF’s programs support these efforts. They target areas where small investments in ICT can make an important difference, and where we can play a facilitating role. KTDC is pleased to be selected as the design firm for the annual report.
