A Shared Table: ChefsGiving Opens St. Joseph Center’s 50-Year Celebration
Event Recap
St. Joseph Center’s annual ChefsGiving in Venice was a huge success.
Top local chefs, including celebrity Chef Bradley Miller, Emporium Thai,
and Levain Bakery, came together to serve 150 guests in celebration of
our 50th year of supporting the community.
“Chefsgiving is about more than food,” said Dr. Ryan J. Smith, St. Joseph Center’s
President and CEO. “It’s about breaking bread together, honoring community and
uplifting the next generation.”
This year’s ChefsGiving also served as the kickoff to St. Joseph Center’s
50th Anniversary year. Guests, volunteers, and partners filled the courtyard
with gratitude, connection, and the shared belief that everyone deserves
dignity, nourishment, and community.
With chef-inspired dishes, warm hospitality, and the support of longtime
community partners, ChefsGiving set the tone for a year of celebration,
impact, and honoring five decades of service.
