Antonio established The Antonio Carluccio Foundation before he passed away in November 2017. A charity in his name to carry forward his legacy.
The Foundation aims specifically to provide the resources, training and development needed by young otherwise disadvantaged cooks and chefs entering the hospitality industry and to support the work of charities and non-governmental organisations in alleviating hunger worldwide.
Inspired by the charity’s amazing work, Carluccio’s have now raised an incredible £91,721 since 2020 through donating 50p from each sale of our best-selling Penne Giardiniera.
This dish was created by our founder, Antonio Carluccio, in the early days of the restaurant’s history and we are proud that his legacy lives on, helping to raise funds for Action Against Hunger’s life-saving work.
Carluccio’s is a long-standing supporter of Action Against Hunger, through The Antonio Carluccio Foundation.
Action Against Hunger is a global humanitarian organisation that takes decisive action against the causes and effects of hunger, saves the lives of malnourished children and ensures that communities can access clean water, food, training and healthcare through its programmes in 47 countries around the world.
