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.

What a spectacular way to launch our 90/90 Celebration Campaign! Our dinner at Gramercy Tavern on Sunday, October 6, 2024 was absolutely magical, with Jacques himself in attendance, and friends of the Foundation and coming together to #celebratejacques in marvelous fashion. The event sold out, and everyone enjoyed a seated five-course seasonal menu with wine and spirit pairings.

As part of our nationwide 90/90 Celebration Campaign, the Jacques Pépin Foundation is excited to present a series of virtual events featuring Jacques’ culinary friends, Gail Simmons, Jacques Torres and Paola Velez. These interactive online events are designed to celebrate Jacques’ legacy while spreading culinary education and raising funds for the JPF’s mission.

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.
