Bloggers Against Hunger

Fight Hunger! Spread the word!

The Restaurants Against Hunger Celebrity Kick-Off Party will feature exquisite tasting tables, the finest pastries and an open bar including choice wines, vodkas, and beer.  Combining a party atmosphere and a humanitarian purpose, music will be mixed by DJ D-Nice with a live performance by African Jazz Vocalist Somi. The event will feature a Chefs’ Jacket Fashion Show and Auction, produced by Fashion Indie.  All proceeds will benefit Action Against Hunger’s continued strides to provide global hunger relief.

This event will launch the national Restaurants Against Hunger Campaign, April 12th – May 9th.  Restaurants in over 25 cities are working together to promote Action Against Hunger by asking patrons to add $1 or more to the cost of their meal, or to purchase an Action Against Hunger menu item.
