The Pampered Chef® realizes that its shared mealtime mission is not a reality for all people. With a desire to set a place at the table for everyone, our Round-Up from the Heart® campaign encourages Cooking Show guests to “round-up” their product orders to the nearest dollar or more. Funds are distributed to Feeding America®, formerly America's Second Harvest® and Food Banks Canada, previously the Canadian Association of Food Banks, and are used in the community where the donations originated — making Round-Up from the Heart® a national campaign with a local impact. The company also introduces limited edition products to support the campaign and donates part of the purchase price directly to Feeding America® and Food Banks Canada. The Pampered Chef's Round-Up from the Heart® is the longest running charitable program with Feeding America®.

Through its Help Whip Cancer® campaign, The Pampered Chef® joins forces with the American Cancer Society® and Canadian Cancer Society to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer education and early detection programs. Throughout May, Pampered Chef® Consultants raise money from the sale of special pink products, hold special Fundraiser Cooking Shows, and tell others about the importance of regular breast cancer screening and checkups. In honor of breast cancer awareness month in October, Consultants' friends and family can join The Pampered Chef's National Team with Making Strides Against Breast Cancer® and hold Help Whip Cancer® Fundraiser Shows.

Since 2000, The Pampered Chef® has supported the University of Illinois College of Agricultural, Consumer, and Environmental Sciences in Urbana-Champaign. In 2006, Doris Kelley Christopher Hall opened at the University of Illinois to house the Family Resiliency Center. This world-class center is the home of innovative research, education and outreach initiatives to enrich the well-being of children, individuals and families. New for 2011 are Mealtime Minutes, which are practical mealtime solutions to make gathering together around the table the best part of your family’s day.
