Anihan @40: Harvesting Dreams, Shaping Futures

In celebration of four decades of empowering women through culinary and hospitality education, Anihan warmly invites partners, alumni, and supporters to a meaningful and inspiring gathering—“A Milestone of Harvesting Dreams.” This special benefit lunch and thanksgiving event will take place on Sunday, June 7, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the elegant The Palms Country Club.

More than a celebration, this milestone event is a chance to invest in the future of Filipina professionals. Proceeds will support two key initiatives: the “40 Years, 40 Scholarships” program, which provides full educational opportunities to deserving young women, and the upgrading of Anihan’s kitchen laboratories, ensuring students train with industry-standard facilities aligned with global standards.

For 40 years, Anihan has been a driving force in transforming lives—opening doors to careers and helping women turn ambition into achievement. This gathering offers a unique opportunity to celebrate that legacy while contributing to the next generation’s success.

Guests can look forward to an afternoon of fine dining, shared stories, and a strong sense of community—all in smart casual attire. Join in honoring a legacy that continues to uplift, empower, and create opportunities—one dream at a time.
