FCSI’s 30-Hour Fundraising Campaign Now Underway

The FCSI Educational Foundation, marking 30 years in operation, has launched its 30 Hours for 30 Years campaign, which seeks to raise $30,000 between Thursday, Nov. 20, and Friday, Nov. 21.

“Thirty years ago, foodservice consultants created the FCSI Educational Foundation because they saw something important: talented people weren’t discovering careers in our industry,” notes the campaign page. “Not because the careers didn’t exist, but because the doors stayed closed. For three decades, we’ve been opening those doors. Scholarships. Mentorship. Educational programs. Conference access. Real pathways for real people who become real professionals. Now we’re celebrating 30 years by doing what we do best: investing in what comes next.”

Editor’s note: While the 30-hour mark has passed, organizers confirm as of Tuesday, Nov. 25, donations are still being accepted.
