Our mission is to advance and support aspiring professional women in food and beverage, as well as to champion critical industry issues. LDNY’s vision is guided by three objectives: Education, Advocacy and Philanthropy.
Our premier food and fine beverage events are the primary ways we fundraise in support of LDNY’s competitive Scholarship Program, one of our proudest achievements. Created by founder Carol Brock in 1976, our scholarships provide committed students in the world of food and beverage with financial assistance as well as a host of additional industry opportunities.
Leaders across the diverse landscape of food, beverage and hospitality, our members are committed to mentorship and advancing other women's careers in our industries.
LDNY members are creative, thoughtful leaders dedicated to championing relevant industry issues and promoting progress. Leveraging our community's resources, connections and influence, we support critical global and local initiatives.
LDNY’s competitive Scholarship Program is one of our proudest achievements. Created in 1977, our scholarship provides aspiring students with financial assistance and industry opportunities.
