Through the Summer Food Service Program, administered by the Nevada Department of Education, the Culinary Academy of Las Vegas provides free nutritious meals to children 18 or younger in low-income areas. The program is designed to meet children’s nutritional needs in the summer when they don’t have access to free and reduced price school breakfasts and lunches.
We are looking for more organizations to serve as feeding sites. Last summer, the Culinary Academy of Las Vegas provided more than 125,000 meals to 33 sites. With help from the community, we can feed even more hungry children this summer.
For information on how to partner with the Academy on the Summer Food Service Program, please contact Chef Denise Rosettani (drosettani@theculinaryacademy.org) or Yulonda Paige (ypaige@theculinaryacademy.org) or call (702) 924-2100.

The Culinary will be hosting a Collaboration in Communities meeting and potluck on Monday, May 13th from 6-8pm at the Culinary Union.
Members from different communities including the Asian Pacific Islander, Hispanic / Latino, African American, and Caucasian leaders come to work together on issues impacting our respective communities. This is a group that meets regardless of political affiliation to discuss topics that are important to us. We wish to continue working together to make our community stronger.
It is a potluck so please bring an entree, side dish, dessert, or beverage. Feel free to invite others who wish to learn more about Comprehensive Immigration Reform (Monday's topic) or just join our group.

Why has the Culinary survived in Las Vegas?
Because the health of the Strip is dependent on the health of the union. And despite ebbs and flows for both, neither is likely to cease existing.
