DINNER FOR EDUCATION I
Apr 24 2015
What can I say about our 'Dinner for Education' event? Amazingggg! This dinner series was started to help raise money to provide school supplies, scholarships and
support to disadvantaged youth in Africa. For our first intimate dinner we chose Braai NYC - a charming South African barbecue & seafood restaurant located in the heart of Manhattan's theatre district. The word “Braai” is South African for “Barbecue” or “Grill” and is more than a social custom in South Africa - it is a way of life. Around 30 guests attended the dinner, in fact more than we expected so we ended up having to set up extra tables. Attendees were treated to a four-course meal that included an array of delicious appetizers, entrees and desserts from South Africa. The food was delicious, the portions substantial and the atmosphere warm and enchanting. Just when we thought we had finished with one dish another delectable treat was brought out from the kitchen. Overall everyone left satisfied, stuffed and appreciative of the experience and excited about our next event. A great big thank you to everyone at Braai South African restaurant for making our experience so enjoyable and of course our guests for coming out to learn more about our organization and help support our work.
We can't wait to plan our next dinner and hope that you will join us on our journey through Africa to support children in need.
