2007 FESTIVAL ARCHIVES

Thanks to our Supporters

The Berkeley International Food Festival is presented by the West Berkeley Community Development Corporation (WBNDC). Our Mission is to promote the social and economic revitalization of West Berkeley with particular attention to low-income families, seniors, youth, and the disabled.

The City of Berkeley and WBNDC are working to strengthen the economic base of the culturally diverse mix of businesses located in the vicinity of University and San Pablo Avenues in West Berkeley. Additionally, there is support from the festival's new philanthropic title sponsor, the West Berkeley Foundation, a community foundation established to help fund programs that serve West Berkeley's most at-risk children, seniors and families.
