If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, WWD may receive an affiliate commission.

You put the right thing on, you feel different about yourself. You kind of go into the world feeling differently,” Kors said during cocktail hour on Monday. “When you find an organization that does that for people’s lives, you really see the difference. You see the joy when you walk into someone’s home with food that’s been tailored to their needs — it’s amazing. After all these years, delivering the food and being in the kitchen with the volunteers and p...
