Project Description
CookzCreed Foundation is a nonprofit organization that provides culinary individuals with scholarships and funding for school, chef materials, etc... We also provide mental health resources, a mindful chef platform and mentorship.
The problem we are solving is for those students and individuals who need funding for the things they need, can come through the foundation for help. We are also solving the mental health issues in the culinary industry by providing multiple outlets to them.
The size of the market is pretty big. We can help culinary individuals that are in fast food all the way to students to fine dining to entrepreneurs. This foundation is for all those in the culinary field.
CookzCreed Foundation was based off a chef perspective of how to make yourself and your craft great. Dedication, Hard Work, Technique are just a few of those perspectives that the foundation thrives in.
We are seeking funding because we would love to give out two scholarships this fall, as well as partner with some great companies and bring more awareness to the organization.
