The Chef Training program teaches them accountability, it teaches them responsibility and it gives them a real skill that they can lean on throughout their life.

Being a chef is a responsibility. It is the responsibility of transferring information from one generation to another.

I am so supportive of their Chef Training program, which works to bring youth into our restaurants and organic farms, one youth, one restaurant, and one farm at a time.

"By funding a career tonight, you’re forging a brighter future not just for the individual your donation goes to, but for all of us."

“I can’t think of a better way to invest in everyone’s future, than by investing in the training of youth to become the thoughtful leaders and productive workers of tomorrow.”

Of Sprouts’ 2022 Benefit Gala at Mister Jiu’s: “Some of the Bay Area’s most notable culinary luminaries lent their star power to help nonprofit Sprouts Chef Training reach its fundraising goals at its March 13 gala… The event was both a celebration of San Francisco’s vibrant culinary scene as well as the inspiring graduates of the Sprouts Chef Training Program.”
