MICHAEL D. SYMON FOUNDATION

#wefeed

The Michael D. Symon Foundation Inc. is a 501c3 that was originally founded in 2010 by Michael and Liz Symon for educational and charitable purposes. Like its namesake, the primary focus of the Foundation has been the assistance of the Cleveland culinary world and the many charitable needs supported by the restaurant and hospitality industry. Since that time, the Foundation has been instrumental in providing relief to vendors at the West Side Market during the cessation of business at Cleveland’s iconic market due to the fire in January 2013; assisted with the creation and continued success of the Cleveland Chef’s Gala for Autism Speaks; supported the works of City Harvest, No Kid Hungry and Urban Community Schools. With the ravaging of the economy and the continued problems caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Foundation’s future focus will be working with Cleveland area food banks, the Salvation Army and others on the front line. A special focus will be placed on assisting restaurant and hospitality employees and their families during these trying times.

Currently, Michael is sending personalized videos via the Cameo platform with all proceeds benefitting Michael D. Symon Foundation.
