Starters — General Information
BIG BEND CARES is proud to serve up a yearly tradition: "An Evening With Friends." Throughout the month of February, you can organize and host a dinner or cocktail party to raise funds to help in the fight against HIV/AIDS. The money you raise also will help to provide resources for HIV/AIDS prevention and education efforts in the Big Bend.
All proceeds go to Big Bend Cares, the sole provider of services for people living with HIV/AIDS in an eight county region. Parties can run the gamut from informal events to fancy, gala balls.
To conclude the month of activities, Chez Pierre Restaurant, Tallahassee's premier location for fine French cuisine, will host a Dessert and Coffee Reception on Saturday, March 3, from 9 - 10:30 p.m. Eastern time. The dessert reception is free for anyone who attended your "An Evening With Friends" party.
For more information, please see the online "An Evening With Friends" party toolkit below, or contact Director of Development Michelle Hayse at 850-656-2437, extension 225 (e-mail mhayse@bigbendcares.org), or Laura Seaton at 850-656-2437, extension 301 (e-mail lseaton@bigbendcares.org).
