This Holiday Season support our local Food Pantry, NNEMAP
posted by shortnorthNNEMAP Food Pantry has been operating in the Short North for over 40 years. This past year we became more involved in the Short North by joining SNBA and participating in more of the activities. On Friday, November 19th at 7:30 PM, we are having our first fundraiser. It is a benefit concert for our pantry called “Harmony For Hunger”. It will be held at King Ave. United Methodist Church at King and Neil Avenues. NNEMAP is supported by 32 churches throughout the county, and several close by our pantry. The concert will feature top musical performers from 17 of those churches. It should be a memorable evening!
We also are planning a raffle during intermission. Our goal is to have gift certificates from as many Short North businesses as possible for our raffle. All will be mentioned in our program, and we anticipate 400-500 guests. If you are willing to support our mission by giving us a gift certificate, please contact Roy Clark, Director at 542-7366.
The SNBA is also supporting NNEMAP this holiday season by coordinating a food drop-off program for any Short North businesses that choose to participate. There will be more information coming from thier newsletters in the coming weeks.
