Find updated news throughout the Northeast region
Dear Northeast ACF Member,
Let us welcome the flavors of fall, I’m excited to share the latest updates, events, and opportunities within our ACF Northeast community. However, in light of the recent natural disasters that have impacted various regions, I extend our heartfelt thoughts and support to those affected. These natural events can cause significant disruption and loss, and our community stands in solidarity with all who are experiencing these challenges. As a culinary organization, we recognize the importance of resilience and recovery in the face of adversity. I encourage our members to reach out and support one another during these trying times. Whether through sharing resources, providing assistance to those in need, or participating in community relief efforts, every action makes a difference.

Funds from the American Culinary Federation Education Foundation Disaster Relief Fund are available to assist ACF members, schools with ACFEF programmatic accreditation and its students, communities and individuals affected by catastrophic events and natural disasters. If you, or any ACF member you are aware of, need assistance due to this disaster, complete the ACFEF Disaster Relief Fund Assistance Request form and email disasterrelief@acfchefs.org.
