We were honored to work with our caterer, A Sharper Palate, to donate the already prepared Banquet food to those in need in the Richmond area. On Banquet afternoon, 300 portions of food were donated to The Doorways, a local nonprofit who provides lodging and support for patients and their families who need to be close to hospitals but not far from the feeling of "home." Additional donations were made to local firefighters and RVA Community Fridges.
