The committee, which is a volunteer auxiliary to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, raises money to benefit people afflicted with multiple sclerosis and to support MS-related research efforts.

A graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, Symon has been named one of the Ten Best New Chefs in America by Food and Wine magazine, and Lola was selected as one of America's Best Restaurants by Gourmet magazine. In addition to being an Iron Chef on Food Network's Iron Chef America, he is the new host of Dinner Impossible on the channel.
