As the holidays approach, we begin to get excited for the upcoming gatherings with friends, the thrill of unwrapping gifts, and sharing bountiful feasts. For some of our Downingtown families, the season looks a lot different. This holiday season, the Thorndale-Downingtown Rotary is partnering with the Downingtown Area School District Food Pantry to provide support to families who experience difficulty in providing the everyday necessities and holiday extras that most of us enjoy.
Downingtown’s Dine Out for Hunger event will provide resources and support to many families in our district to purchase food and gifts this season. The Downingtown Area School District continually supports not only the educational needs of our children, but also the emotional and family support that we so often need. The Rotary Club is proud to be part of this endeavor.
Mark your calendars for dining out every Wednesday in December! Dec 4th, 11th and 18th. The restaurants will be all a buzz as we sponsor our third Dine Out for Hunger event. These businesses in the school district area have committed to donating 15% of their food and non-alcoholic beverage sales to this dine and donate fundraiser. Make sure to MENTION the Dine Out for Hunger event to your server to have your bill count towards the fundraiser. See the list below for details.
