Thank you for taking the time to consider your involvement in the 28th Annual Celebrity Chefs Food
Tasting & Auction hosted by the Ann Storck Center. This signature event, a staple of Ann Storck, will be held at the iconic Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Hollywood on Friday, April 26, 2024. Over thecourse of 27 years, this event has garnered nearly $5.5 million dollars to support Ann Storck Center’s Mission. The Celebrity Chefs event has established itself as one of the most coveted fundraising gatherings in South Florida. A memorable night filled with exceptional entertainment, gourmet cuisine, silent auction, and a remarkable “Bids for Kids” live auction.

​

We expect more than 400 attendees from the business and philanthropic sectors at this year's event, offering chances to engage and socialize with fellow community leaders.
 

This past year, we commemorated the 72nd anniversary of our impactful presence in South Florida. In
1951, Ann Storck, a retired nurse, opened her home and heart promoting learning, self-worth, and independence for children with physical and intellectual disabilities. On December 13, 1981, the Ann Storck Center was officially incorporated. Presently, the center caters to 300 children and adults each day across ten distinct locations, including a school/therapy center, an adult day training program, two Intermediate Care Facilities providing specialized residential services, and four community-embedded group homes offering a more independent lifestyle. There is much to celebrate!

 

There is NO CHARGE to participate. We only ask each restaurant to provide food for up to 300 people.
Ann Storck will provide:

• Two 6 ft. linen ready tables
• Plates
• Utensils
• Electricity
• Water
• Ice (as needed)
• Restaurant/Chef recognition in pre/post event publicity
• Logo ID in invitations, sponsor video, and on event signage

​

An excellent opportunity awaits you to connect with a fresh audience of potential customers and distribute
bounce-back offers or giveaways to event attendees. This is the perfect platform to showcase your restaurant,
highlighting any signature items featured on your menu. We are thrilled to extend this fantastic marketing
opportunity to you. Initiating your participation is straightforward—just complete the enclosed form and return it
