DONATE

Ment’or is a nonprofit organization devoted to inspiring culinary excellence and preserving the traditions and quality of cuisine in America. Your generous donation goes to support our programs, which include:

Bocuse d’Or Team USA

The Bocuse d’Or, held every two years in Lyon, France, is one of the world’s most prestigious culinary competitions and is often described as the culinary Olympics. Founded in 1987 by legendary French Chef Paul Bocuse, it brings together the best chefs from around the world to compete in an intense, stadium-style environment. 

For chefs, competing is a career-defining achievement and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to represent their country on a global stage. The 2027 #RoadtoLyon will officially kick off in early 2026, when the 2027 Team USA is announced. Every donation ensures the team has all the necessary equipment and ingredients needed to compete successfully in Lyon. 

Chef André Soltner Grant Program

The Grant Program was established to provide young culinary professionals with unique opportunities to expand their training and skills through stage experiences, many of which they could not access or afford on their own.

Each grant we provide allows aspiring culinarians to connect with some of the world’s most established mentors and top restaurants. Our goal is to support the next generation with the resources, education and tools they need to grow a successful culinary career. All contributions are greatly appreciated and help make an impact. 

Donate today and join us in making a difference! For donations of $50.00 or more, we will send you our signature Team USA scarf.
