Your Event Guide

Mission 1: Stuff the Cart
Guests are encouraged to bring canned goods with the goal of filling an entire shopping cart.
These popular items are challenging to keep stocked right now, so every canned good you bring helps us keep these in-demand essentials on our shelves.
Bring a can (or a few!) and help us fill a cart. Or maybe more than one!
Mission 2: SuperShelf Scavenger Hunt
Get a closer look at our SuperShelf with a fun scavenger hunt!
Guests will explore the food shelf looking for five adorable fruit and veggie toys, with each one highlighting a bite-sized, values-aligning fact about our food program.
Find them all and you’ll be entered into a prize drawing!


On the Menu: Donatelli’s
Donatelli’s will be serving up delicious heavy appetizers for the evening, with vegetarian and gluten-free options available. Many of the dishes we chose were inspired by the Good & Cheap cookbook—a resource we distribute to clients that includes practical tips for stretching a grocery budget, making the most of pantry staples, and preparing meals that are both nourishing and satisfying.



So What Wine is Back!
Back by popular demand! Ashley Hausman and the So What Wine team are returning for another Mixer with a Mission.
Taste your way through a selection of wines, then pick your favorite to enjoy as a complimentary drink!
And, of course, there will be wonderful non-alcoholic options to sample, too, so everyone can find something they enjoy.


Milly’s Kitchen Madness & Bakes
And for dessert, our friend Sarah at Milly’s Kitchen Madness and Bakes is whipping up some special seasonal delights for guests.
