Gift for Life’s Home vs Hunger team brings its signature “Party with a Purpose” fundraising event back to Fall High Point Market, on Sunday, October 27, 2024, from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the Eichholtz Showroom, 129 S. Hamilton Street, High Point.
Following the success of its April 2024 “Party with a Purpose,” which raised over $21,000 for World Central Kitchen’s crisis-related hunger relief programs, Gift for Life’s Home Vs Hunger team is gearing up for another impactful evening. The event will again offer industry professionals and hunger relief supporters a chance to mingle, enjoy an evening of entertainment, and contribute to a vital cause.
“Our last three Home vs Hunger events were tremendous successes, and we are eager to build on that momentum with this October's gathering,” said Russ Jones, Chair of Gift for Life’s Home Vs Hunger team. “Home Vs Hunger is more than just a fundraiser; it's a testament to the generosity and spirit of our industry. We invite everyone to join us for an event at which every contribution will make a tangible impact on communities in need.”
This October’s event promises an evening of camaraderie and purpose, to raise an ambitious $30,000 to support further World Central Kitchen's vital efforts in crisis-related hunger relief. The Home Vs Hunger initiative, which debuted at High Point Market in October 2022, has now raised over $60,000 through various fundraising activities, including in-person events at High Point Market in Fall 2022, Spring 2023, and Spring 2024, as well as an online campaign in February 2023 following devastating earthquakes in Turkey and Syria and in August 2023 following destructive wildfires in Maui.
