Battle of the Chefs 2026

Join us for Battle of the Chefs 2026, a culinary competition and fundraiser on Saturday, July 11th at Dunning’s Market in Flossmoor, IL.
This annual event is hosted and started by PWN Member Maureen Mader of Dunning’s Market.
Battle of the Chefs brings together top culinary talent in support of two impactful organizations:
PWN Member iCan Dream Center and Center for Food Equity In Medicine.
The iCan Dream Center is dedicated to empowering neurodiverse students so they can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
The organization provides much-needed services across the Southern suburbs.
The Center for Food Equity In Medicine works to ensure that individuals facing cancer and other life-altering conditions have access to the
nutritious food essential for healing and well- being. The organization provides free monthly groceries for more than 100 families across seven states!
Our goal is to raise $75,000 to directly support these organizations. Your support helps the people who need it most. We hope to see you there!
We welcome donations of any amount!
