Ten thousand dollars can go a long way, and Kapiolani Community College’s Culinary Arts Program intends to take a recent donation from Hy’s Steak House as far as it can.<\/p>\n

“Private support like this gift from Hy’s Steak House are instrumental in the program’s continued excellence,” said Ronald Takahashi, chairman of the college’s Culinary Arts Department.<\/p>\n

KCC’s accredited program has accumulated national praise for its achievements, including Exemplary Program status from the American Culinary Federation Educational Foundation in 2012 and a student team winning Best in the Nation at the American Culinary Federation’s 2009 competition.<\/p>\n

“Thriving cities need thriving restaurants,” stated Wakana Tabata, managing director of the longtime, award-winning Waikiki eatery, which has supported the KCC effort in the past. “In order for a restaurant to do well, it needs trained, talented culinary professionals. This gift will help nurture the program that grows our local culinary stars.”<\/p>\n

Additional support for culinary education on the East Oahu campus are always welcome. Visit uhfoundation.org\/givetokcc<\/a> or contact Linh Hoang at linh.hoang@uhfoundation.org or 734-9570. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
