### Outstanding in the Field Announces Special Event for Fire Relief at Rose Bowl
In response to the devastating Eaton and Pacific Palisades Fires in January, dedicated community relief funds—the **Altadena Community Fund** and the **Palisades Community Fund**—have been established to support local recovery efforts. As part of these initiatives, **Outstanding in the Field** will host a special *Day After Tomorrow* community dining event at the **Rose Bowl Stadium** on **Saturday, March 8**. The stadium previously served as a staging area for first responders during the Eaton Fire.
This unique event will bring together renowned chefs, including **Giada de Laurentiis, Eric Greenspan, Timothy Hollingsworth (Otium), Neil Fraser (Redbird), Tolu Eros (Ilé), Minh Phan (Phenakite), Gabe Kennedy (Checker Hall), Karla Subero Pittol (Chainsaw), Dean Yasharian (Perle), Bret Thompson (Pez Coastal Kitchen), Paola Guasp (Amara Kitchen), Vanessa Tilaka Kalb (Agnes Restaurant and Cheesery), and Anna Sonenshein and Niki Vahle (Little Fish).** They will collaborate in preparing a four-course meal using seasonal California ingredients from local farms.
### Proceeds for Community Restoration
The **net proceeds from the event will be evenly distributed between the Altadena and Pacific Palisades Community Funds**. These funds have been designed to provide immediate relief while also supporting long-term rebuilding efforts. Tickets for the dinner range from **$2,500 to $10,000**, and the evening will also feature a **live charity auction**, offering exclusive experiences and celebrity engagements, with all proceeds benefiting the affected communities.
“This is a powerful act of kindness by the food community to nourish the people of Altadena and the Palisades,” said **Jim Denevan, founder of Outstanding in the Field**. “We feel privileged to set this healing table just miles from where the Eaton Fire burned, with farmers and winemakers who care for our land.”
### Community Leadership
The **Altadena and Pacific Palisades Community Funds** were created by local leaders to give residents a direct role in fundraising and rebuilding. Founding members include **Kate and Bill Fishel (executive vice chairman, Newmark, and chairman of the board, Make-A-Wish Greater Los Angeles), Paul Fuhrman (co-founder and managing partner, Miramar Capital), Sam Bakhshandehpour (global CEO, José Andrés Group), Mickey Segal (founder and managing partner, NKSFB), and Lindsay Petersen (associate, Miramar Capital).**
