Chef's Night is an evening at the food bank featuring some of Central Florida's best chefs and cuisine, all to benefit our Darden Foundation Community Kitchen's Culinary Training Program.

Our Culinary Training Program provides qualified, at-risk and economically disadvantaged adults with the culinary and life skills training needed to pursue a sustainable career in the food industry.
