Last week, we had the honor to host three talented young chefs in our Westlake Village office for the Sunshine For All Cities Nutritious is Delicious Cook-Off: Deniasha Burton of Baltimore, MD, Daleyza Angulo of Merced, CA and Caylee Boyd of Jackson, MI. These three girls were crowned regional champions in their local Boys & Girls Clubs of America chapters and flown to CA for the finals. Seeing our young chefs foster a passion for nutritious living and culinary pursuits is one of the many things we wanted kids to takeaway from the program. As part of our ongoing Dole Promise, this program aims to inspire a passion for nutritious living by providing more access to nutritious foods and providing hands-on instruction to cook healthier meals. All of this combined has helped over 110,000 families gain access to better nutrition and provided over 7.5 million servings of fruit to food insecure communities - an effort that has received recognition from the The White House Challenge To End Hunger Congratulations to each contestant and we look forward to watching you all continue to grow in your cooking education! 🎉 Special congratulations to our Grand Prize winner Deniasha Burton! Special thanks to our program partners: Partnership for a Healthier America, Sodexo Stop Hunger Foundation, Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Mississippi, Boys & Girls Club of Merced County, Boys & Girls Clubs of Metropolitan Baltimore ➡ Click through the gallery to see snippets from an action-packed 3 days with our partners.
