How to Support Us

The San Francisco Chapter of Les Dames d’Escoffier advances the next generation of women leaders in food, fine beverage and hospitality through scholarships, grants, fellowships and mentoring that make a tangible difference in our community. None of this happens without the generosity of the businesses and individuals who stand behind us.

There are three ways to give:

  • Sponsors: Businesses that enter into a formal annual partnership with benefits.
  • Donors: Individuals or businesses making monetary gifts to the chapter, its programs, or events.
  • In-Kind Contributors: Businesses or individuals donating products, services, space, or expertise to our events.
Every contribution — at every level — is recognized and deeply appreciated.


Become a Sponsor

Sponsors are businesses that partner with our chapter through a formal annual commitment — combining financial support with direct access to our curated community of women leaders in the Bay Area food, beverage, and hospitality world. In-kind product or service contributions are welcomed at all levels, in addition to the monetary commitment. Contact us at president@lesdamessf.org to learn more.

Become a Donor

Individual and business donors make our philanthropic programs possible. Your contribution directly funds the scholarships, fellowships, and grants we award each year. Donors are recognized on this page and in our annual year-end thank-you.
