The PRLA has been working with High School and CTE culinary and hospitality programs within PA.  We offer support to them through our involvement and financial support.  In addition, we work to connect our members with these programs to help make the students more well-rounded.  Industry involvement and support are invaluable to the success of these programs. This is an exciting opportunity to connect the classroom with our members to enhance student educational experiences. 

There are a variety of ways you can support these local programs and we are always open to creating new support options if you are interested in creating a new level of support for the students.

We hope that you will consider sponsoring our ProStart program through donations and/or your time.   Please contact Hope Sterner.
