Who we are
Ark & Kernel Foundation was born from a promise: to honor Ruth Evelyn King, a grandmother whose kitchen was filled with love and whose dream was to nourish everyone she met. Founded by Angela Bedford, Ruth’s granddaughter, we combine culinary creativity with community outreach — bringing mobile meals, gourmet popcorn, and homemade ice cream to children across Texas.
Our Mission
We’re on a mission to end childhood hunger and teach culinary skills that empower young people to thrive.
