Attention all chefs! Who wants to take the title for the \u201c2012 Saipan\u2019s Next Top Chef Competition\u201d? If you love to cook, and you\u2019re ready to show off your culinary skills and help a worthy cause, sign up for this exciting event.<\/p>\n
The Empty Vessel Ministry Foundation, in conjunction with Pacific Islands Club, is pleased to announce that the annual fundraiser is scheduled for Saturday, July 28, 2012, at the Charley\u2019s Cabaret. <\/p>\n
Rose Smith, founder of the EVMF, said the funds that are raised will be committed to assisting families on Saipan, in Kenya, and the Philippines. \u201cOur organization sponsors programs such as free health screenings for women, school supplies to children, and education tuition for orphans and street children,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
Last year, Saipan\u2019s Top Chef winner, Melquiades De Ramos, said \u201cThe best part about winning, is knowing that I was a part of an event that raised money to help desperate families, especially orphans and women. I encourage all chefs to join the competition and help this wonderful charity.\u201d<\/p>\n
Prizes will award to the top three chefs garnering points from a panel of judges.
