Community Involvement
We enjoy participating in the lives of our communities. We are involved in many activities and try to form partnerships with organizations that benefit the community, our employees, customers and shareholders.
Product Donation
We gladly offer product donation to non-profit organizations that share our community priorities and environmental concerns. Below is our giving guidelines, review it and if you believe we will find synergy submit a product donation application for our review.
Guidelines
– Recipient must be a 501c3 non-profit organization (copy of 501c3 must be submitted with the application)
– Civic and charitable groups are considered if the organization is located in our community or immediate area.
– Completed applications are reviewed on a quarterly basis (see deadlines).
– Past support of an organization or an event is not a guarantee of future support.
– We do not donate food to individuals or multiple requests from the same organization.
BigChef receives many requests and all of them are worthy. Although, we would like to fulfill all wishes not all of them can be granted.
“Extra Food” Donation
We also offer bulk donation of food. Primarily to serve less privileged, homeless shelters and agencies that regularly distributes food within the community. We are unable to take requests for specific flavor or quantity of food. This donation program does not have any deadlines; applications are reviewed whenever BIG CHEF has an inventory of items to donate. Generally, “extra food” consists of overproduced items or simply left over from trade shows or events.
NOTES:
There is no limit on the quantity of product that we will contribute. Sometimes we can grant the entire wish other times only donate a portion of the product requested. We are unable to partner with organizations that require “servers” in addition to food. Delivery is not a part of the donation; you should consider picking it up. Product donations to international charities and organizations due to natural disasters are subject to the above schedule.
