What I did
Founded Cookers&Eaters events in which students of the Michigan International Student Society introduced their homeland’s cuisine to other students. Students participated in the events in the following three ways:
- The Host – Hosts and prepares traditional dishes and beverages for other students
- The Cookers – Help the host and learn how to prepare the dishes and beverages
- The Eaters – Just show up and dig in.
Overall, I organized 8 Cookers&Eaters events to enable cultural exchange, increase face-to-face interactions and provide healthy food to over 100 students for under $10 from February-May 2018.
