SUMMARY:The Power of Food: Binding us to our Culture and One Another
DESCRIPTION:A culinary and cultural night fundraiser for the Refugee Women’s Network.\n \nFood is a universal experience. It can make you feel at home or connected to you home when you are far away.

The chefs in the program have vast knowledge of cooking age-old recipes and cooking techniques. Many of them are accomplished chefs and share keen interest in venturing into the food business. \nIn this event you are invited to: \n\nLearn how to cook an appetizer in 20 minutes or less\nHear from refugee chefs about their journey and the importance of food to the refugee community\nGain a new perspective and appreciation for food\n\n100% of the funds raised in this event will support the Chefs Kitchen Program: \n\nPay for chefs certification\nRental of kitchen facilities to train chefs\nCooking supplies\nHelping chefs launch their own business\nProvide access to mentorship and training programs\n\nYou are invited to make a donation to support the Chefs Kitchen Program: \nhttps://www.gagives.org/story/Bzfkpf \n  \n\n\n	From the archive:
