Girls Hope of New Orleans provides homes and educational opportunities to
kids in need. The opportunities include access to schools, such as Jesuit High
School and a number of other Catholic schools across the city. For those moved
by what Boys Hope Girls Hope of New Orleans stands for, there is an event
happening this weekend that supports this cause: Galatoire's At Home.
The event, which is actually a two-night
event, will conclude with a fantastic dinner at Galatoire's Restaurant, for those who
signed up to take part in this fundraiser. The restaurant and the organization
have a deep relationship together, having been working together for the last 10
years. This so-called "Patron in Place" event serves two needs: It provides a
delicious meal to customers who have not been able to dine out for some time,
and it provides funding for a great organization.
The event will be happening this
Saturday, July 25, and will feature a premium meal, consisting of a hearts of
palm salad, followed by a beef filet in a portabella mushroom bordelaise, and
finished off with a chocolate pecan tartlet.
The event will be a great way to
rise up from our time alone and begin to give back and perhaps even regain a
sense of normalcy, while helping others.
