Pig Out To end hunger next Wednesday

by | Oct 2, 2013

The annual Phabulous PhinneyWood Pig Out is next Wednesday, Oct. 9, where you’re encouraged to eat out early and often all day long to help raise money for the Phinney Neighborhood Association’s Hot Meal Program.

The program feeds 150-200 meals three days a week to those in need. The program receives grants from the city and donated food and lots of volunteer help, but it’s not enough. That’s where the Pig Out comes in. Thirty neighborhood restaurants, coffee shops and pubs will donate a portion of their sales that day to the Hot Meal Program. So you can have coffee and a pastry in the morning, take your colleagues out to lunch, and then go out for dinner with the family or drinks in the evening and it all counts.

Last year’s Pig Out raised more than $5,000.
