Come with us, and you’ll be in a world of generous celebration…
Grab your ticket, or a seat,
to a soiree of hope and elevation
What you’ll find when you go
Are 35 chefs and casino tables aglow
And if kindness is what you seek
You just might find some joy for you to keep

Join us for an extraordinary evening to remind families navigating a cancer diagnosis that even in life’s toughest moments, there’s still room for a little wonder. Along the way, you just might discover a little wonder within yourself.
Culinary Care delivers free restaurant-prepared meals while providing families fighting cancer the community support they need to heal — we think of it as bringing hospitality into cancer care. We make more good days possible, and you’re invited to be part of it.
