From The Community Kitchen To The CHATT Foundation

Sign for the CHATT Foundation.
CHATT Foundation

This fall, the Chattanooga Community Kitchen changed its name to the Chatt Foundation.

For more than forty years, the nonprofit has served three meals a day to those in need - but its mission today goes beyond that in many ways.

Baron King is CEO of the Chatt Foundation.
