Our

Mission

SVF

The Sam Vincent Foundation’s Culinary Inspiration For Youth program is designed to replicate the loving support that surrounded and inspired Sam.  The program is taught by some of the finest Chefs in the Bay Area.  Our program’s purpose is to encourage and inspire youth at-risk in the East Bay to believe in their dreams and, often for the first time, they recognize they even have a personal dream. The youth realize they can achieve by learning respectful team work, hands on culinary excellence and especially healthy food choices, all which are a core of our program.
 
Since 2014 we have inspired 50+ youth (each year adding close to 20 more) and have watched them leave our programs with great pride in their acquired knowledge about healthy food, it’s preparation and a new found self-confidence.  We look forward to inspiring more youth every semester through our very unique culinary program and by this , we know we have made Sam proud.
 
Along with our own Culinary Inspiration For Youth programs we give a yearly donation to a like-minded non-profit positively encouraging and inspiring our local youth.

 

 

Classes

Our Sam Vincent Foundation Culinary Inspiration For Youth classes are designed to inspire youth in the culinary arts as well as to provide a safe, encouraging environment for the youth to build confidence in themselves and their new acquired skills.

100% of your generous donations goes to paying for culinary tools, the youth’s Chef attire,  fresh, organic ingredients and our kitchen rental.

 Our mission is to reach as many at-risk youth of the East Bay with our unique Culinary Inspiration For Youth programs!
