VU's Charity Dinner raised funds for a non-profit social enterprise dedicated to raising awareness and providing support for mental health issues within the hospitality industry.

It was a priviledge to have Burnt Chef ambassador speak passionately. The Burnt Chef Project focuses on reducing stigma around mental health through advocacy and community engagement. They encourage open conversations and offer resources and training to individuals and businesses. Set up in May 2019 after the Founder, Kris Hall, had spent years watching his close friends suffer from the ill effects of working within hospitality without feeling confident to discuss the subject.

VU event management students provided the warm welcome on the evening, ushering, and managing the silent auction with $3,352.80 raised from all event proceeds. This donation will contribute to free-to-access mental health training and other resources.

During the June 2026 Charity dinner for The Burnt Chef Project dedicated hospitality students worked to set up the restaurant for over 100 guests, polished over 600 glasses and 500 pieces of cutlery, seated and interacted with guests, and served paired wines alongside five courses.
