Taste of the Nation
11-Mar-2006
As you may remember from last year, I am a big supporter of Share our Strength and especially their premier fundraiser, Taste of the Nation. I love this organization and event because nearly all of the funds collected are used for their programs, not for administration, and most funds stay local so when you contribute you are really contributing to your own community. Although Seattle’s event occurs a bit later this year (end of July) many areas across the rest of the country are already in full swing! Duluth’s event is March 31; Greenville, SC is on April 2; and Boston’s event is on April 6 with many others following closely on their heels.
The best part of these events is that not only are you really helping your community but it’s a ton of fun to do so. The events feature little bites from the local area’s top restaurants; wines, beers and, often, spirits; as well as coffee, tea and specialty water.
So check out the site, find an event in your area, gather a group of friends and go help your community!
