National Food Service Worker Day is a special time to honor the heart and soul of the food service industry. At Giving Kitchen, we believe in celebrating the hard work and dedication of food service workers who bring joy to our tables.
By joining National Food Service Worker Day you aren’t just celebrating an industry—Together we’re igniting a movement.
We’re inviting everyone to participate, whether by dining out, sharing their food service story on social media using #FSWDay, or participating in education sessions. For nearly two-thirds of Americans who have worked in food service, this is a chance to reconnect with their roots and support those currently in the industry.
A great way to support food service workers is to dine out on National Food Service Worker Day.
Be sure to thank your cashier, server or any other staff you meet during your meal. And let them know that you’re celebrating the day.
If you’re looking for a new favorite spot, consider one of the hundreds of restaurants participating in Giving Kitchen’s Dining With Gratitude fundraising campaign throughout the month of September.
Everyone has a connection to the food service industry. Whether your first job was behind a drive-through window or you’ve devoted decades to working in a Michelin-starred restaurant.
On National Food Service Worker Day, we invite everyone to share how the industry has impacted them personally. Post a selfie, a throwback photo or a short video to let everyone know why you’re a proud member of the food service community.

We want to make sure every food service worker knows that they are valued and that their work is meaningful.
On National Food Service Worker Day we’re sending volunteers to restaurants across the country to thank their teams and educate them about Giving Kitchen.
Any food service worker can Ask For Help from Giving Kitchen, and we want to make sure that they all know that we’ve got their back.
Sign up to receive a swag pack to bring to your favorite restaurant when you stop by on the 25th!
