About 10 Chefs
10 Chefs Inc uses an annual Anchorage hospitality event to channel net proceeds into equal grants for ten selected nonprofit organizations. The foundation’s model is built around community benefit rather than a single issue area: recent awards supported health, human services, animal welfare, food security, arts and culture, and local nonprofit operations. In the recent grant list, American Cancer Society received $91,200 in 2025, the largest grant shown, while Boys & Girls Clubs of Southcentral Alaska received $69,427 in 2024 and also appeared again in 2025. That pattern fits the organization’s stated approach of splitting event proceeds among ten local beneficiaries each year. The giving profile shows a broad but locally anchored mix of Anchorage-area charities. Recipients include Alaska Kidney Patients Association, Alaska Police & Fire Chaplains, Alzheimer Resources of Alaska, Food Bank of Alaska, and Bird Treatment & Learning Center, all funded with general support. The consistent use of unrestricted funding suggests the event is designed to provide flexible operating dollars to community organizations selected as annual beneficiaries.
What 10 Chefs Funds
A clear theme in the grant list is general operating support for Anchorage nonprofits. The foundation awarded $51,156 to Food Bank of Alaska in 2025, and the same recipient also appears in 2024 and 2023, showing repeated support across years. Health and human services organizations are another visible lane. Alaska Kidney Patients Association received $51,156 in 2025 and $40,044 in 2024, while Alzheimer Resources of Alaska received $51,156 in 2025. They also support youth, family, and community service groups. Big Brothers Big Sisters Alaska received $51,156 in 2025, and The Salvation Army received $29,383 in 2023. Animal-related work appears as well, including Alaskan Animal Rescue Foundation at $51,156 in 2025 and Bird Treatment & Learning Center at $40,044 in 2024.
How 10 Chefs Gives
Typical grants cluster tightly around a few equal-share amounts: p25 is $29,383, median is $40,044, and p75 is $51,156. That pattern matches the stated structure of splitting annual event proceeds among ten selected nonprofits. Several organizations appear in multiple years, including Food Bank of Alaska, Partners For Progress, The Salvation Army, Grace Alaska Inc, Challenge Alaska, Bird Treatment & Learning Center, The TEARS Foundation, Alaska Kidney Patients Association, Alaskan Animal Rescue Foundation, Alaska Police & Fire Chaplains, and Boys & Girls Clubs of Southcentral Alaska. The foundation’s grants are general support, and its event sponsorship program accepts unsolicited participation, while the beneficiary-grant programs do not.
