My Project

I am trying to rebuild a culinary program in at a low income high school. We need a lot of supplies and equipment in our classroom. The students do a great job of making do with the supplies and equipment that we currently have, but we are trying to have enough hats for everyone to be able to wear a chef hat when we do labs.

We need chef hats to help us maintain high standards of safety and sanitation while learning to cook and bake in a junior culinary environment.

Please help us get the needed chef hats for everyone in our class to be able to wear one. We have good sanitation and safety habits in our classroom.

Our students are using hair nets and they hate them. They look awful and do not work as well as fabric chef hats. Please take a look at our project, and help us if you can!
