Our fundraising efforts are directed toward existing organizations. When we co-host events, such as prior collaborative efforts with FareStart, NECAT, Rhode Island Food Bank, and Boston University, a majority of the funds raised go directly to our partner. We are proud to support the great work that is being done in communities all across our nation.
This is the fourth event in a cross-country series taking place throughout 2024 and celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Julia Child Award in past recipients’ hometowns. The series will raise critical funds for the Smithsonian Food History Project at the National Museum of American History. Menu Curated by Chefs Renée Touponce, Kinsler Josaime, and Jacques Torres.
Chill the Champagne and stock up on birthday candles, because Jacques Pépin is going to turn 90 next year! That’s something to commemorate in and of itself, but at the Jacques Pépin Foundation we’re planning to celebrate both the man and the mission of the JPF.
Every year when the calendar turns over to October, we turn our attention to welcoming more folks to the Jacques Pépin Foundation Membership family. The JPF Membership program has been a cornerstone of the vision and mission of the Jacques Pépin Foundation since 2020, providing grants to Community Kitchens nationwide and delivering expert recipe videos directly to Member inboxes.
August is Make-A-Will Month, a time to reflect on the importance of planning for the future and ensuring that your wishes are respected. The JPF’s Director of Philanthropy, Tula Gogolak, created the 1935 Society to bring together a circle of friends who share a common vision to ensure future generations have access to culinary education, life skills training, upward mobility, and better health through better food.
It is our great pleasure to announce that the JPF has selected two graduates of JPF-supported culinary training programs to receive a 2024 JPF Memorial Grant of $5,000 each to continue their culinary journeys. Congratulations to the winners and their respective programs!
