31st Annual Star Chefs & Vintners Gala
October 12, 2018Marie Nedich

We are thrilled to announce that we raised an astounding $3.3 million at the 31st Annual Star Chefs & Vintners Gala – enough to deliver 660,000 meals to homebound seniors in San Francisco. None of this would be possible without the support we receive from every chef, vintner, sponsor, patron, and volunteer. We are so grateful for all that you do to make this event possible!

Make sure to read Michael Bauer’s write-up about the Gala in the San Francisco Chronicle and take some time to pour over the fabulous photos by Drew Altizer and his team. They managed to catch all the action from the VIP reception to the very last dance of the evening.

The Gala’s success is a result of our community coming together, under one roof, to ensure homebound seniors in every neighborhood of San Francisco are not forgotten. To remind you of that impact, click on the link below to watch the video we debuted at this year’s event.

Mark your calendar for May 19, 2019 to join us once again as we celebrate the 32nd Annual Star Chefs & Vintners Gala.

Thank you for being a part of our community – for being our champions, our advocates, and our partners in the fight against senior hunger and isolation. We simply could not do this work without you.
