Cook, Share, Belong began as a simple idea to showcase some of the more popular recipes served to our Studio Assistants at their preschool (because they actually ate the food there). But what it became far exceeded anyone's expectations—an inclusive community fundraising project for the Starlight Foundation, bringing together a network of editorial professionals, local businesses and families that raised over $9,000 dollars to change sick children’s lives.

 

​D&O not only coordinated the editorial, creative and production teams, but designed every page and created every illustration (and of course, contributed a few family-favourite recipes).

​

One of our ‘Design it Forward’ projects, this book was made possible in part through the generous support of Guardian Early Learning, Ball & Doggett, Seed Print Group and many others.
