Gala

Fruits and veggies with Second Annual Growing Our Table Gala presented by Port Washington State Bank

 A GREAT NIGHT OUT, FOR A GREAT CAUSE

Second Annual Growing Our Table Gala

We did it again, and we had so much fun!

Around 200 of our old and new friends joined us for good food, fun drinks, a great silent auction, raffles, a wine pull, a bourbon wall, and more, all to raise money to outfit our new welcoming, bright, and open food space!

Master of Ceremonies Mark Baden ably led us through a “Fund A Need” auction to help convert our old walk-in freezer into a new-to-us walk-in cooler, sponsored by Port Washington State Bank, who MATCHED the first $5000 raised!  And we were so pleased to welcome Patti Habeck, CEO of Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin as our keynote speaker to help us understand the impact of our pantry on our community ecosystem.

Our Gala was presented by Port Washington State Bank with Spotlight Sponsor Charter Steel, along with all of the great Table Sponsors mentioned below and some fantastic Fund A Need Sponsors and Friends of the Pantry Sponsors.  Amazing in-kind donations from all the great folks listed in the program (click the photo on the right to view the program as a pdf) were absolutely essential to our success.  And, we are so grateful to all the Live and Silent Auction donors and everyone who joined us, bid on something, or purchased a raffle ticket or a chance to win a great bottle of wine or amazing selection of bourbons. Overall, we raised $50,000!  Amazing!

Let’s do it again in 2025!
