LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Certified Piedmontese donates $40k to 2,222 Inc. nonprofit in assist of military, military spouses, and veterans with transition, PTSD support, therapy, and education as part of the Guest Chef Series launched by Casa Bovina, Certified Piedmontese's Italian-inspired fine-dining restaurant.

In the Guest Chef Series, Certified Piedmontese invites the nation's foremost chefs to take over Casa Bovina and feature their own tasting menus. 100% of the proceeds will go towards a charity of the chef's choosing. Guests can support the cause by making reservations and enjoying an exquisite dining experience executed by a celebrity chef in collaboration with Casa Bovina.
"This experience at Casa Bovina was literally one of the highlights of my career," said Chef Andre Rush. I say this not only because the food was amazing but because of the people, service, and energy that exudes excellence. I am humbled that Certified Piedmontese would give such a generous gift. They strived to make it the perfect event for guests and also made sure that 2,222 Inc. was highlighted. I want to say thank you to Certified Piedmontese from the bottom of my heart, not only for the nonprofit but learning that there are truly compassionate people out there willing to help."
The Guest Chef Series would continue throughout the year. "Certified Piedmontese looks to continue expanding this program as an opportunity to raise awareness while sustaining the foundations and nonprofit organizations that provide invaluable support to charitable purposes for the community," said Shane Peed, CEO of Certified Piedmontese.
"We are thrilled to have this opportunity in collaboration with Chef Rush to offer our support to charities of great causes around the country," said Joe Finegan, Project Coordinator of Certified Piedmontese. "Our goal was to raise $25k through the event, and we surpassed our goal when we successfully raised $40k. The Lincoln community really stepped up in support of our military and veterans."
