My Project

To enhance the learning experience and ensure success in our culinary class for students with various learning styles, we are seeking donations of specific supplies. Our goal is to provide a supportive and inclusive environment where every student can develop practical cooking skills, gain vocational experience, build confidence, and enjoy hands-on learning.

Needed Supplies:

Safety / Hygiene Gear: hairnets, chef hats, non-latex gloves.

Cleaning Supplies: dish soaps and laundry detergent.

Kitchen Supplies: blenders, pots and pans, order slips.

Help our students reach the following goals:

Independently perform jobs in the kitchen.

Introduce different healthy food options and make better choices when selecting foods.

Use appropriate workplace behavior when completing culinary jobs.

Your support will make a significant difference in our students' ability to participate fully and enjoy the culinary arts.
