Cooking for a cause

Chef Kelly English is not only the face of Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital’s Le Bon Appetit event, but he is also one of its founders. Over the course of its four iterations, Le Bon Appetit has raised more than $1 million for specialized medical equipment, child-specific programming and technology for the Mid-South’s first and only comprehensive hospital dedicated to kids. To Kelly English, this event is more than just a way to give back to his community; it was also born from a childhood experience of his own.  At the age of six, English spent two months in an adult hospital in his hometown recovering from a life-threatening fall; it was his memory of daunting, sterile facilities that began his dream of supporting the work of a family-friendly hospital, like Le Bonheur Children’s, that is dedicated to kids.

Kelly quickly found that he was not alone in his desire to offer his skills and time in the name of helping children. Le Bon Appetit features more than 30 of the nation’s best chefs who come together with one goal: to offer up ‘great food for a great cause.’ Learn more.
