THE PAMPERED CHEF HELPS 'ROUND OUT' HUNGER IN OUR COMMUNITY AND COLLECTS MORE THAN $11,000 FOR THE ST. LOUIS AREA FOODBANK

ST. LOUIS, MO -- April 11, 2001 -- Once again, The Pampered Chef has made a significant contribution in the battle against hunger in St. Louis.

Through "in-home" Kitchen Shows, The Pampered Chef Kitchen Consultants encourage their customers to 'round out' their purchases.  For example, if purchases add up to $14.50, the customer can round it to $15 with the extra 50 cents benefiting a local food bank.  Those efforts recently collected $11,402.77 for the St. Louis Area Foodbank.

In our community, any proceeds gathered from rounding out, benefits the St. Louis Area Foodbank.  "The commitment shown by The Pampered Chef is inspiring," stated Frank Finnegan, Executive Director of the St. Louis Area Foodbank.

"Their support over the past years has made a tremendous impact in our efforts to end hunger in St. Louis," concluded Finnegan.

If you enjoy cooking, you may want to consider holding a Pampered Chef Kitchen Show in your home.  It's fun and you might raise some funds for the Foodbank in the process!   For more information about having a show, please call 1-800-266-5562 or visit their official website at
