Donate
We believe in the power of community to transform lives—and we’re just getting started.
Ichyou is now a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and we are honored to receive your support. Every gift is fully tax-deductible and directly fuels our mission: training apprentices, revitalizing small restaurants, and strengthening our food community.
Through our Givebutter platform, you can make a one-time donation or join our recurring donor circle, the Ginkgo Circle, to sustain this movement month by month.
Your support—whether large or small—makes a lasting impact. Together, we are restoring dignity to culinary work and creating new opportunities for those ready to lead.
Volunteer
We are now accepting volunteers to support a range of early-stage projects as Ichyou launches. Whether you're looking to give back, build experience, or earn community engagement credits through San Francisco State University, we welcome your interest.
Reach out to explore current opportunities and help us build a stronger, more inclusive culinary community from the ground up.
Board and Staffing
Ichyou is actively recruiting visionary professionals to serve on our Board of Directors. We are especially seeking individuals with experience in hospitality, workforce development, education, and community activism who share our commitment to equity and empowerment.
We will also be hiring for key staff positions starting in mid-Fall 2025, and we invite early interest. If you align with our mission, we’d love to hear from you.
