Last week, we celebrated our 2026 HMEF and Sue Zelickson Scholarship Recipients at the Beach Club Residences for our annual awards breakfast.

It was a morning full of inspiration, but the big news stole the show: HMEF has now awarded over $1,000,000 in scholarships to date!

By supporting these incredible students, we are ensuring that Minnesota’s hospitality industry stays vibrant and strong for years to come.

Join us in congratulating:
✅ Our State ProStart Champions for their technical skill and leadership.
✅ Our Educators of Excellence and Mentor of the Year for guiding the next generation.
✅ The Sue Zelickson Scholarship winners, as we continue to support women leading the way in food science and culinary arts.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and to the partners who help us make a difference in these students' lives.
