Indulge in Handmade Ice Cream for a Cause When the Students of The International Culinary Center Raise Funds to Support Gulf Coast
Students of The International Culinary Center are doing what they do best by getting into the kitchen and creating a creamy summer treat in support of wildlife and the eco-system affected by the Gulf Coast oil spill. Students will be selling handmade Bourbon Butter Pecan Ice Cream with Fudge Tar Balls to raise money for those directly affected by the oil spill to help to address victims’ immediate needs. 100 % of the proceeds from the sale of the ice cream will go to the National Wildlife Federation’s® Gulf Oil Spill Restoration Fund - America's largest conservation organization is working with volunteer networks on immediate response and ongoing efforts to protect and restore vulnerable nesting and breeding grounds as well as other delicate ecosystems found throughout the Gulf Coast for water birds, sea turtles, and other animals.
Ice cream will be available to the public Saturday, July 17th and Sunday, July 18th from noon – 4 pm at L’Ecole, the Restaurant of The French Culinary Institute, located at 462 Broadway (at Grand) in New York. The pre-packaged cups of ice cream will be sold for $5 until the ice cream runs out. So if you’re looking to cool down during this record setting heat wave, come support the Gulf Coast by purchasing the handmade ice cream.
