Local Charity House Hosts Food and Wine Fundraiser

Delicious food and wines from New Hampshire restaurants and wineries, a silent auction full of holiday shopping potential and live music – all in the name of helping local children and families in need. This is the goal of Homeward Bound, a food and wine tasting event to be held Thursday, December 1, 2011 from 6:30 until 9:30 at the Radisson Hotel in Nashua. All proceeds from the event will benefit Anne-Marie House (AMH), a transitional housing program for children and families experiencing homelessness.

Individual tickets are $50 each and reserved tables of eight are available for purchase at a discounted rate of $45 per person. Tickets include food and wine samplings, live music, goodie bags and special success stories from families that have graduated from Anne-Marie House. A large silent auction will also be available and includes signed sports memorabilia, jewelry, gift certificates for a variety of services and weekend getaway packages. Tickets can be purchased online here or by calling (603) 883-7338, ext. 5.

Sponsorship opportunities are also available, are tax-deductible and start at as little as $100. For more information please contact Jennifer Lorrain, AMH Director of Development, at (603) 883-7338, ext. 5 or Jennifer.Lorrain(at)annemariehouse.org.

Since 2005, Anne-Marie House has served the needs of local children and families experiencing homelessness by providing safe and temporary housing, wholesome meals, transportation, continuing education and other support services such as parenting classes and financial literacy workshops. Nearly 90% of Anne-Marie House families achieve independent and sustainable housing and nearly 90 cents of every dollar donated to AMH directly supports resident families and children.
