Presented by Nourish Up

Luncheon of Hope featuring Dawn Staley

About This Event

The overall mission of Nourish Up's annual Luncheon of Hope event is to bring the community together by raising awareness and funds to nourish our neighbors in need. The event combines inspiration, advocacy, and philanthropy, often featuring influential speakers and bestselling authors who share messages of hope, resilience, and community empowerment. 

Proceeds from ticket sales and sponsorships directly support Nourish Up’s programs, helping expand our reach and impact in providing food and compassion to those facing hunger. The luncheon is not only a fundraiser but also a celebration of our organization’s commitment to creating a community where we accept no excuses for our neighbors going hungry.  This spring event specifically helps us raise funds to combat summer hunger among the thousands of children in our community who lose access to free and reduced breakfasts and lunches when school is out of session.

Lunch is provided by our friends at Compass Group.
