Bridging the Gap
8th Annual Feeding the Spirit Fundraiser

May 10  |   6:30 PM – 9:30 PM
Rizzo's Malabar Banquet Facility

Feeding The Spirit is continually gratified by your support. Thanks to our committed volunteers, generous donors, and supportive community, Feeding the Spirit has grown far beyond our humble beginnings. With your help, over the past seven years, we have provided in excess of 30,000 meals to those in need in our community. Our desire and ability to uplift only continues to grow. Each spring, we come together and invite our volunteers, donors, and supporters to share in an evening of music, food, fellowship and fun.

On Friday, May 10th, 2019, we will gather at Rizzo’s Malabar Inn Banquet Hall to celebrate the year’s accomplishments and look forward to the coming year, all to the soulful sounds of Darryl and Kim. This year, we are pleased to offer sponsorship opportunities for businesses and corporations. Packages vary, but each includes name recognition and tickets to the event. 

Join us for an evening of food, fun, fellowship and music as we celebrate the accomplishments of the past year and garner resources for the year to come!

Tickets are $40 and include hearty appetizers, an infamous Pittsburgh cookie table, a basket raffles and silent auction, and music by Darryl and Kim.
For tickets, sponsorship opportunities, or information on how you can help, call Michele Wengryn at 304.677.2644 or email her at FTS.michelew@gmail.com.

Grant from Dominion Energy Warmed Many Hearts during a Record Cold January.

A $10,000 grant from Dominion Energy could not have come at a better time for Feeding the Spirit. The grant, earmarked for for homeless placement, or for poor families at risk of becoming homeless, will directly help individuals in crisis situations.

Last year 500 people were placed and taken off the streets. This grant will directly assist those efforts and help carry out the mission.
