Celebrity chefs and cooking enthusiasts recently came together to raise more than R500 000 at Reach for a Dream’s Cooking for Dreams fundraiser.

Reach for a Dream, based in Illovo, is a non-profit which helps to make the dreams of children fighting life-threatening diseases come true.

Bryanston residents Sungeetha Sewpersad and her daughter Amaira show off their culinary talents.

Around 3 000 supporters joined the live event hosted by renowned chefs David Higgs, J’Something and The Lazy Makoti, in partnership with Discovery Vitality, Emperors Palace and Woolworths, to raise much-need funds for the organisation.

David Higgs, The Lazy Makoti & J’Something unite for this year’s edition of Cooking for Dreams.

Participants cooked a delicious appetiser and main course meal with products from their cooking-for-dreams boxes valued at R550 – it included ingredients to feed a family of four.
