Last year this fundraising initiative was taken to help increase awareness and community engagement with our local food bank (Eden Food For Change) with a goal to raise ($2,000) by selling (100) tickets at ($20). A local business (Meridian Credit Union) learned about this initiative and matched the original ($2,000) goal. An additional (50) tickets were sold at ($20) helping to exceed the total donation ($5,100). The restaurant (Drake, A Firkin Pub) provided the venue, food vendors donated in-kind and volunteers helped to set up, serve, and clean up. These combined efforts ensured (100%) of the funds collected were provided directly to the food bank
