COME INSIDE AND HAVE A “TASTE” OF HOW YOUR COMPANY CAN PARTICIPATE 3
INTRODUCTION
In October, 2014, Paella for the World , in coordination with the New Jersey Restaurant Association and the American
Academy of Gastronomy, produced the inaugural New Jersey Paella Festival at the prestigious Culinary Arts Institute of
Hudson County Community College in Jersey City. The festival was (and is) the only event dedicated to promoting Spanish
cuisine and the commercialization of the Mediterranean diet products in the Garden State. On October 25th, State
Assembly Speaker Vincent Prieto along with Assemblywoman Angelica Jimenez, introduced a resolution to designate
October 25, 2014 as “New Jersey Paella Day.”
The event was such a big success that Paella for the World has decided to produce festivals in two other states in 2015 …
Florida (St. Augustine) and California (Los Angeles) and enhance things to make the events more of a celebration of Spanish
culture and all of its customs and have activities including music, dancing, pageantry , color and of course … great paella and
food! As an added bonus for sponsors, Paella for the World is an Alliance Member of the St. Augustine 450th
Commemoration , and the Florida Paella Festival will be included in the schedule of “Celebrate 450!” … an epic 5-day event
commemorating America’s beginning. The Festival will have a standalone presence on Saturday, September 5th.
The blueprint of a true, all-day festival will give our Corporate Partners a tremendous experiential opportunity to engage,
sample, sell and brand their products and services to a captive audience and diverse demographic in one, two or all three
markets … including the #1, #2 and #48 DMA’s in the country.

EVENT BENEFICIARIES
Our Veterans
Proceeds of the three (3) Festivals will benefit Military Veterans through Paella for the World’s “Paella Healing Veterans” program.
Paella Healing Veterans
A pilot program whose goal is to provide free Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment (HBOT) to U.S. military veterans with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and
post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). To achieve that goal Paella for the World will donate hyperbaric Chambers to veteran organizations.
Why Traumatic Brain Injury(TBI) and post-Traumatic stress Disorder (PTSD) are significant health issues for Veterans returning from service ?
Because the effects of these conditions are usually long lasting and often life threatening (frequently suicide), and currently there are no
definitive medical treatments for TBI and the treatments being provided today are only palliative drugs and/or counseling. Numerous studies
have demonstrated that the untreated, lingering effects of these injuries adversely impact the returned Veterans’ lives, resulting frequently in
destroyed families, drug and alcohol use, unemployment, mental illness, incarceration, and homelessness. As a result of their experiences in
wars, soldiers often suffer from unbearable headaches, dizziness, depression, nightmares, and violent mood swings.
What is HBOT?
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a medical treatment which enhances the body’s natural healing process by inhalation of 100% oxygen in a
total body chamber, where atmospheric pressure is increased and controlled. It is used for a wide variety of treatments usually as a part of an
overall medical care plan. The FDA has approved hyperbaric oxygen therapy for 13 different uses, but not for traumatic brain injuries. Insurance
does not cover it.
17
WHAT IS PAELLA
AND THE MEDITERRANEAN DIET?
Paella
A rice dish from Spain that has become very popular and is known around the world. It
originated in the fields of a region called Valencia in eastern Spain. Paella is a dish that is
part of the Mediterranean diet. Actually, there are as many versions of paella as there are
cooks. It may contain chicken, pork, shellfish, fish, eel, squid, beans, peas, artichokes or
peppers. Saffron, the spice that also turns the rice a wonderful golden color is an essential
part of the dish.
The Mediterranean Diet
A modern nutritional recommendation originally inspired by the traditional dietary
patterns of Greece, Southern Italy and Spain. The principal aspects include proportionally
high consumption of olive oil, legumes, unrefined cereals, fruits & vegetables, moderate to
high consumption of fish, moderate consumption of dairy products (mostly as cheese and
yogurt), moderate wine consumption, and low consumption of meat and meat products.
18

  • 4. INTRODUCTION In October, 2014, Paella for the World , in coordination with the New Jersey Restaurant Association and the American Academy of Gastronomy, produced the inaugural New Jersey Paella Festival at the prestigious Culinary Arts Institute of Hudson County Community College in Jersey City. The festival was (and is) the only event dedicated to promoting Spanish cuisine and the commercialization of the Mediterranean diet products in the Garden State. On October 25th, State Assembly Speaker Vincent Prieto along with Assemblywoman Angelica Jimenez, introduced a resolution to designate October 25, 2014 as “New Jersey Paella Day.” The event was such a big success that Paella for the World has decided to produce festivals in two other states in 2015 … Florida (St. Augustine) and California (Los Angeles) and enhance things to make the events more of a celebration of Spanish culture and all of its customs and have activities including music, dancing, pageantry , color and of course … great paella and food! As an added bonus for sponsors, Paella for the World is an Alliance Member of the St. Augustine 450th Commemoration , and the Florida Paella Festival will be included in the schedule of “Celebrate 450!” … an epic 5-day event commemorating America’s beginning. The Festival will have a standalone presence on Saturday, September 5th. The blueprint of a true, all-day festival will give our Corporate Partners a tremendous experiential opportunity to engage, sample, sell and brand their products and services to a captive audience and diverse demographic in one, two or all three markets … including the #1, #2 and #48 DMA’s in the country.

  • 17. EVENT BENEFICIARIES Our Veterans Proceeds of the three (3) Festivals will benefit Military Veterans through Paella for the World’s “Paella Healing Veterans” program. Paella Healing Veterans A pilot program whose goal is to provide free Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment (HBOT) to U.S. military veterans with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). To achieve that goal Paella for the World will donate hyperbaric Chambers to veteran organizations. Why Traumatic Brain Injury(TBI) and post-Traumatic stress Disorder (PTSD) are significant health issues for Veterans returning from service ? Because the effects of these conditions are usually long lasting and often life threatening (frequently suicide), and currently there are no definitive medical treatments for TBI and the treatments being provided today are only palliative drugs and/or counseling. Numerous studies have demonstrated that the untreated, lingering effects of these injuries adversely impact the returned Veterans’ lives, resulting frequently in destroyed families, drug and alcohol use, unemployment, mental illness, incarceration, and homelessness. As a result of their experiences in wars, soldiers often suffer from unbearable headaches, dizziness, depression, nightmares, and violent mood swings. What is HBOT? Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a medical treatment which enhances the body’s natural healing process by inhalation of 100% oxygen in a total body chamber, where atmospheric pressure is increased and controlled. It is used for a wide variety of treatments usually as a part of an overall medical care plan. The FDA has approved hyperbaric oxygen therapy for 13 different uses, but not for traumatic brain injuries. Insurance does not cover it. 17
  • 18. WHAT IS PAELLA AND THE MEDITERRANEAN DIET? Paella A rice dish from Spain that has become very popular and is known around the world. It originated in the fields of a region called Valencia in eastern Spain. Paella is a dish that is part of the Mediterranean diet. Actually, there are as many versions of paella as there are cooks. It may contain chicken, pork, shellfish, fish, eel, squid, beans, peas, artichokes or peppers. Saffron, the spice that also turns the rice a wonderful golden color is an essential part of the dish. The Mediterranean Diet A modern nutritional recommendation originally inspired by the traditional dietary patterns of Greece, Southern Italy and Spain. The principal aspects include proportionally high consumption of olive oil, legumes, unrefined cereals, fruits & vegetables, moderate to high consumption of fish, moderate consumption of dairy products (mostly as cheese and yogurt), moderate wine consumption, and low consumption of meat and meat products. 18
  • 19. ABOUT PAELLA FOR THE WORLD Disseminating the Authentic Spanish American Culinary Traditions Paella for the World is a private non-profit institution whose main objective is to organize activities in the United States to disseminate the authentic Spanish American culinary traditions and to increase the consumption of products from the Mediterranean diet. Paella for the World’s “Commitment to Community” also includes:  Providing scholarships to students of gastronomy  Honoring food journalists and chefs that best reflect the excellence of our cuisine  “Replace with Green” program, whose goal is to increase the consumption of seasonal fresh fruits, vegetables and other products from the Mediterranean diet among low-income families.  “Paella Healing Veterans” program Paella for the World is funded by grants from the Maecenas Association LLC and other private companies. 19
