most popular events on Las Vegas’ social calendar. M.E.N.U.S. is hosted by one of the city’s world-class resorts and features deluxe

dining stations offering gourmet bites from some of the finest restaurants in town along with premium beverages and spirits.

FUTURE LEADERS OF HOSPITALITY PROGRAM

HCF works to create an interest at the high school level, seeking exceptional students committed to furthering their education and skill in

hospitality and culinary arts.

HCF's primary endeavor gives financially underprivileged students the opportunity to attend a four-year college with premier hospitality and

culinary programs. The Foundation has sponsored many high school students as interns in various hotels and restaurants both on the Las

Vegas Strip and throughout the city and awarded full-tuition academic scholarships to Clark County high school graduates.

HCF students are developed to succeed in their future employment with comprehensive work force development programs that provide

university scholarships (tuition and books), unique one-on-one mentoring, networking opportunities, leadership guidance, and etiquette

development.
