In an effort to streamline Negroni Week and to make the initiaitive's charitable component more impactful, we are moving from a multi-charity model to having one official giving partner: Slow Food. We chose Slow Food because they address so many of the needs that participating Negroni Week venues and the hospitality industry have been most interested in supporting over the past 10 years, including sustainability, education, equity, and diversity, with hospitality, food, and drink woven throughout. They also have a global footprint, with chapters and initiatives in countries and cities all over the world, and it's an organization with roots in Italy. Slow Food represents the ethos of Negroni Week to cultivate community and seek a better world for all through hospitality.

Slow Food is a global movement of local communities and activists, across more than 160 countries, that envisions a world where everyone can enjoy food and beverage that is good for them, good for the people who grow it, and good for the planet. As an international organization, they defend cultural and biodiversity, promote food education and the transfer of traditional knowledge and skills, and advocate for more just and equitable policies. Slow Food has launched the Slow Food Negroni Week Fund to support and engage with the hospitality world. This includes community-led projects that lead the transformation of the global food and beverage system through preserving cultural and biodiversity, promoting food and beverage education and knowledge exchange, and raising awareness on critical food and beverage issues. In addition to supporting Slow Food’s ongoing initiatives, this fund supports grants for projects committed to achieving change in local food and beverage systems.

In order to register for Negroni Week and be published as a participating venue, you must make a donation of at least $25USD to Slow Food as our official giving partner. Your donation will help support the very menaninful work they do around they to ensure a world where everyone can enjoy food and beverage that is good for them, good for the people who grow it, and good for the planet.
