2020 Relief Campaign

In 2020, the Jacques Pépin Foundation planned to provide $200,000 in grants. We have now begun to honor pledges with grants to Hot Bread Kitchen and the Food Bank for New York City. To continue this effort, we need your help. For our 2020 Relief Campaign, we are offering a limited number of prints of Jacques' artwork. The need of our country's under-served citizens, and now restaurant workers is greater than ever. Please help us support our partners, fighting on the front lines of hunger relief. Thank you, stay well and be kind.
