Robert Shaheen

Director of School Nutrition

After graduating from college in 1989 I began my career working in the financial industry learning accounting practices and financial management. I have 25 years of experience in the restaurant industry as a General Manager working for major restaurants like Uno Chicago, Panera Bread, and Friendly’s. During that time, I developed a positive culture of working with staff to deliver the best products and services to customers. Over the past 10 years, as a school food service director, I've found a purpose in feeding children and students while providing resources for healthy eating habits.

Who We Are

The Chef Ann Foundation is dedicated to promoting whole-ingredient, scratch-cooking in schools. Scratch-cooking enables schools to serve the healthiest, tastiest meals so that kids are well-fed and ready to learn.

Our Mission

Ensure that school food professionals have the resources, funding and support they need to provide fresh, healthy, delicious, cook from scratch meals that support the health of children and our planet.

Why School Food Matters

American kids start their life-path in K–12 schools where they learn the skills necessary to thrive & meet their potential. While the country debates the best ways to teach them math, science & English, we spend little to no time on food & nutrition.
