about

Founded in 2020, House of Bah Foundation, formally known as Eat N' Talk Africa sprang from the realization that minorities and African culinary heritage lack representation in the food and beverage industry. Our organization aims to improve the racial and social relationship between local communities within the US by creating forums for education and intercultural exchanges on New Americans and African Culinary Heritage to spark meaningful conversations about diversity and build equitable and sustainable communities.

Vision

To live in an equitable community that values and celebrates the diverse cultures within it

Goals

Education
Our focus will be to shed light on the rich and diverse minorities' culinary heritage and build awareness around the hospitality industry's lack of diversity in menu offerings.
