“Boogie, Brews & BBQ”

Plowshares’ fall fundraising event for Meals-on-Wheels is on Saturday, October 5th from 5:00pm -9:00pm at Barra of Mendocino.

Boogie down with The Funky Dozen, drink brews & wines and feast on amazing BBQ entrees with all the trimmings, plus desserts!

The “BBB” event is dedicated to support our Meals-on-Wheels program, which delivers 140 daily free, hot, freshly prepared meals to the homes of disabled, homebound seniors. A year ago we obtained equipment that allows us to freeze and deliver meals for weekends as well – so we are now providing meals to these seniors seven days a week, for a total of over 50,000 a year!

And the value of Meals-on-Wheels goes far beyond the nutritious food we supply. Daily visits from our friendly volunteers are sometimes the only human contact the seniors receive during the day. Some of them have told us, “You’re the reason I get up and get dressed each morning!” or “I don’t know how I’d get by without your help!”

Plowshares does not charge for this service and relies on community support to keep this program going. A $75 all-inclusive ticket will do just that! Plus gives you, live music, dancing, BBQ, Drinks, great company, and a raffle for a variety of enticing items! The “BBB” event promises to be an exciting evening to remember.
