Hospitality Management donates for National Hispanic Heritage Month

Update | Tuesday, October 13, 2020

National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15-October 15) pays homage to the contributions and influence of Hispanic Americans to the culture and history of the United States. This recognition has inspired the School of Hospitality Management and Culinary Arts to pay homage to our Hispanic community in Columbus.

According to the Food Research & Action Center, In July, more than 1 in 5 Latin adults with children reported that they sometimes, or often, do not have enough to eat.

To assist with this need, the School is supporting National Hispanic Month and the movements to end hunger. They are spreading awareness about the need for proper nutrition by aligning with the American Culinary Federation (ACF) and their celebration for Childhood Nutrition Day on October 16.

Using local Ohio organic flour from Stutzman Farms, the School provided a local Hispanic community with more than 12 dozen loaves of freshly made bread on September 29. (See below.) The School’s leadership not only approved the initiative but also joined in the efforts by crafting ambrosial Concha Rolls.
