Junior Chef Volunteer Program Overview

Jr Chef

History

Every year since 2002 Andy Cagnetta has invited his friends, family and peers to join him for an Italian family pasta dinner to raise money to feed individuals and families in Broward County. Over the past 20 years, this event has raised 1 million dollars for LifeNet4Families.

This year, the 21st Annual Andy’s Pasta Dinner will be held on Sunday, February 19th, 2023. The money raised directly benefits LifeNet4Families and their efforts to provide food and other basic resources to people in need in Broward County.

Goal

Introducing high school and middle school students to an opportunity where they can volunteer their time to help others and learn a sense of gratitude and empathy for the needs of the less fortunate in their community.

Volunteer

We invite you to become a Junior Chef, the title we have given to student volunteers who both volunteer their time at LifeNet4Families and also fund-raise for the event.
