Board of Directors

The CHF was established in 1962 by the Canadian Restaurant Association (now the Canadian Restaurant & Foodservices Association) and is guided by a Board of Directors made up of senior executives from the foodservice and hospitality industry as well as educators and media within the industry.  It has been administered and managed by the Ontario Hostelry Institute since November 1993.  The CHF is a registered charitable organization.

The Canadian Hospitality Foundation's mission is to reward the best and the brightest students across Canada whose goal is to enter the foodservice and hospitality industry.  The scholarships are to encourage and ensure that these students continue and complete their education and enter into the industry.
