Throughout the month of April, Extra Serving is bringing you a new bonus content series: Get to Know a Nonprofit, highlighting nonprofit organizations that either benefit members of the restaurant industry or actively work through the restaurant industry to benefit others. 

Next up in Get to Know a Nonprofit is the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation, or NRAEF, which is the nonprofit arm of the association that empowers people from all backgrounds with the training and education they need to secure a better future in the foodservice and hospitality industries.

Rob Gifford, president of the NRAEF, joined NRN editor in chief Sam Oches on the podcast to share more about the foundation, its impact, and how restaurant operators can not only get involved, but also how they can benefit from the organization’s myriad programs.
