River Food Pantry Birthday Bash

The River Food Pantry offers groceries, mobile lunches and to-go meals for more than 1,000 Dane County families each week. You can celebrate the organization's 15th anniversary by helping the River raise funds to replenish its pantry with this drive-through dinner (at 2201 Darwin Road). You'll get a goodie bag and meal to take home (choose from pork tacos, chicken shawarma or Vietnamese chopped salad), plus the chance to participate in a wine pull and raffle without ever leaving your vehicle. Buy tickets here ($50) by May 13; a limited number of tickets will be available day-of, first come, first served.
press release: Get ready for a birthday bash! The River Food Pantry is celebrating 15 years of feeding Dane County on Saturday, May 15 from 4–6 pm with music, food, drinks, and goodie bags served curbside. All the proceeds from this drive-thru fundraising event will go toward providing healthy food for food-insecure families who utilize The River’s services due to the ongoing pandemic. Tickets are $50 per person and include a dinner, drink, dessert and goodie bag.
“You will take home a beautiful meal and enjoy music and a wine pull from the safety of your car, all while supporting Dane County families facing food insecurity,” said Rhonda Adams, Executive Director at The River. “Come experience The River’s curbside distribution for yourself and help us celebrate 15 years of caring, compassion, and community.”
