Cooking with Chamomile
We provide a cooking class lead by one of our beneficiaries who can school you in almost any dish! She teaches other people in our program how to make food at an affordable price as well as how they can expect to make the dish in an average Greek restaurant. Sharing skills is an irreplaceable experience and fosters a sense of community.
Integrative Play
The children on our program work with volunteers to have fun while learning how to follow directions, share with others, and communicate. Our kids love coloring, cooking, and lots and lots of stickers!
Greek Lessons
Since the COVID-19 pandemic began the classrooms closed. Luckily Chamomile beneficiaries were connected to a Greek teacher that provided virtual lessons to support their integrative journey in Greece.

Chamomile Housing Project offers programs that support our beneficiaries in sharing their skills with each other. Here you see one of our beneficiaries teaching her love of cooking to other participants in the project. She teaches participants how to cook dishes from around the world using her tips and tricks to make the dishes both affordable and delicious! She also shares her insight with the class, having worked in kitchens in the Athens area. At Chamomile we strive to foster a community through sharing knowledge, stories, and experiences. Together we can make the world a tastier place. Please consider donating to Chamomile Housing Project so that we can continue our cooking program.
