Chef Kaslow Scholarship Fundraiser
The Nicholls Culinary Alumni chapter would like to raise $10,000 for an endowed scholarship in the name of former culinary instructor and professor Chef George Kaslow.
Longtime Chef John Folse Culinary Institute professor, professional chef and television personality George Kaslow was known for his unique teaching methods and ability to connect with students.
Kaslow and his outgoing personality was shown through his actions, whether he was jumping onto classroom tables or dancing with performers during the Chef John Folse Culinary Institute’s annual fundraiser, Bite of the Arts. He would offen to get on all fours to show students the parts of a cow using his body as an example. He always was there to help out student in need. He left the culinary institute in 2014 with health problems. January 1 2015 he passed away from health issues.
This year we want to honor him by establishing an 10,000 endowed scholarship in his name by his birthday on August 27.
If you would like to help us establish this endowed scholarship, you can donate, renew/join your Culinary Alumni Chapter membership, or purchase chapter shirts below.
