Ohio ProStart needs your help!
Contributions and donations are needed to help enhance Ohio's ProStart® program and fund Ohio Restaurant Association Education Foundation (ORAEF) initiatives to support ProStart students and educators. Funding is also needed to support the Ohio ProStart Invitational, a statewide competition that sends the winning teams to compete at the National ProStart Invitational. These lifetime experiences offer opportunities for the students to earn scholarships to post-secondary institutions. We are striving to become the premier state in providing excellence in ProStart® education.
Since the ORAEF is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit foundation your donation would be greatly appreciated as well as tax-deductible. To make an online donation to the ORAEF, please complete the form in the above link.
