Hi,
In fair disclosure I must tell you that I’ve been the Volunteer Coordinator for CHEFS for the past 10 years, so might be a wee bit biased. But it’s a WONDERFUL program and it really works!
When you pass by a homeless person on the streets and wonder what you could do to help them out, buying a ticket to Summertini is one answer. Not only will you be contributing to an organization that helps get people off the streets and into the kitchen, which is a very important step in breaking the cycle of homelessness, BUT you’ll also have a fantastically fun evening. So why not buy a ticket –and invite a bunch of your friends to come with.
