The Massachusetts Restaurant Association (MRA) recognizes the need to bring greater awareness to the issue of childhood hunger in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and is committed to doing so through meaningful campaigns. Sadly, according to the latest statistics, over 600,000 Massachusetts residents struggle with hunger, of which nearly 200,000 are children.
This year, we are proud to partner with the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce to host its first Cape Cod chef-focused event, Something’s Brewing on Cape Cod, held Monday, May 14th at Cape Cod Beer and benefitting Share Our Strength and its No Kid Hungry Campaign, whose mission is to solve problems of hunger and poverty in the United States and around the world.
As we all know, meaningful change comes when communities rally together to address the needs of their citizens, which is why we are so proud to have eight incredible Cape Cod-based restaurants and their talented chefs participating in this important event. We’d also like to thank sponsors Cape Cod Media Group, Cape Cod Healthcare, iHeart Radio Cape Cod, Rogers & Gray Insurance, and TriMark, for their support in addressing the issue of childhood hunger in Massachusetts and beyond.
Guests in attendance at Something’s Brewing on Cape Cod will be treated to delicious tastings from each chef paired with signature craft brews from Cape Cod Beer along with live music performed by local singer-songwriter Josh Briggs. Tickets (on sale now) are $30 for MRA or Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce members and $35 for non-members, and can be purchased here.
All proceeds will go to No Kid Hungry to help ensure that every child in the United States has access to healthy food no matter where they live, learn and play.
Additionally, we’d like to share a few words from participating chefs and sponsors about why this inaugural event is so important to them and the Cape Cod community:
Chef Todd Farmosa of 400 East Restaurant - “We’re a family restaurant and it’s important for us to participate as we believe no kid, from Cape Cod all the way to California, should ever be hungry or unaware of where their next meal will come from.”
Cape Cod Beer – “One of the fundamental principles that Cape Cod Beer is founded on is loyalty to the community. We believe that it’s our responsibility and our privilege as a local business to give back to the community that supports us by drinking our beer. Working with an organization like No Kid Hungry/Share Our Strength that helps the hard-working families in our community is a perfect fit.”
Executive Chef Joseph Ellia of Bear In Boots Gastropub – “No kid should ever go hungry or worry about the possibility of going hungry. Period.”
Chef Donna Barreiro of Alberto’s Ristorante – “Our children are the future and they need to have proper nourishment to be able to be able to learn and lead healthy lives.”
Chef James Gardiner of Captain Parker’s Pub – “When it comes to supporting children, we will always be involved. We whole-heartedly believe in supporting our local community and are looking forward to this incredible event.”
Executive Chef Richard Goudrea & Sous Chef Justin Robo of The Casual Gourmet – “It has been estimated that several thousand children on Cape Cod have experienced food insecurity at some point in their lives.
As long-time supporters of public education, Olive and Dave Chase strive to end childhood hunger with the help of their community partners. It’s a proven fact that hungry children don’t learn well.”
Rogers & Gray Insurance Agency – “The agency and our employees are both big proponents of giving back to the community. Many of our employees have families and children and we can all agree that no child should ever by hungry or wonder where their next meal will come from.”
Chef Rob Finnemore of The Quarterdeck Restaurant – “We support No Kid Hungry because we believe every kid should have the right to three healthy meals each and every day.”
Chef Steve Fox of Sam Diego’s Mexican Cookery & Bar – “No child should go hungry in this country, but unfortunately it happens every day. It’s up to us, the community and citizens, to prevent this from happening and tackle the issue head on.”
