This year’s Chefs Who Care was a night to remember, bringing together top chefs from across New Jersey and New York, including beloved celebrity Chef Lidia Bastianich, who was honored by the NJ Italian Heritage Commission for her contributions to culinary arts and Italian heritage. They welcomed more than 500 attendees from the communities across New Jersey, all gathering to support The Ashley Lauren Foundation and its mission to bring hope and help for children facing pediatric cancer. Guests were treated to a one-of-a-kind culinary experience, featuring luxury food and spirit brands, an exciting silent auction, and the warmth of community dedicated to making a difference.
