As someone whose career has been dedicated to curation, finely edited storytelling and who is equally food-obsessed, Motamed has curated a collection of small maker spotlight gift boxes and is also donating 10% of the proceeds from each gift box sold to World Central Kitchen, which focuses on emergency and COVID-19 food relief on a global scale.
