Since the year 2005, the group known as The Kitchen Cabinet has made great
strides to end the fight against hunger in many Greater
Boston area communities. With just 53 current members,
these business professionals extend the mission of their cause by
engaging their colleagues, friends, family and even strangers to
come together for events aimed at improving the status quo of
Bostons surrounding neighborhoods. In association
with Boston Magazines Taste, the co-chairs of The Kitchen Cabinet,
Meg Staknis and Sandra Serie have organized the next happening
known as Fall Into Fall which will take place on Monday, November
14th, 2011.
Supporting the Greater Boston Food Bank as their primary
target, The Kitchen Cabinet organization
works tirelessly to have as many volunteer opportunities as
possible. Hunger in Massachusetts affects more people than one
might imagine. This is precisely why this group of individuals
tries relentlessly to have tons of fun and uplifting gatherings
that will raise the greatest amount of money possible. Last year,
Fall Into Fall raised more than $24,000 which in turn was
able to supply over 60,400 meals! Gibson Sothebys
International Realtys own Andrew McLaughlin is
one of the aforementioned 53 members of this group and will also be
volunteering his time and energy on November 14th for the
betterment of this struggle that he hopes to end.
The event will kick off on Monday, November 14th will at 5:30PM
with the Kitchen Cabinet Pre-Cocktail Party
located at Dante, 40 Edwin H.
Lane Boulevard in Cambridge and will run until 7:30PM. From there,
the night continues at the Museum of Science at 1 Science Park in
Boston from 8:00PM until 10:30PM. All of the proceeds from ticket
sales will go towards putting food on the table for those in need.
With a ticket, one gets complimentary parking at the Museum of
Science, as well as beer, wine and hors doeuvres. The evening will
consist of a silent auction as well as raffle items that will be
donated from caring groups or people who know that the money raised
from their generosity will make a difference in the lives of many
of our hungry neighbors. The donation of money and food are also
highly encouraged as alternative ways to give aid to these people
who are in dire need within our state that we so deeply love and
care for.
The cost of admission will go as follows:
- For those who wish to only attend the Kitchen Cabinet
Pre-Cocktail Party, tickets will be $75 per person - For individuals looking to continue this exciting evening and
attend both the Kitchen Cabinet Pre-Cocktail Party and then have
General Admission to the Boston Magazines Taste Event at 8:00PM,
tickets will be $95 per person - For a fee of $150 per person, one can attend the Kitchen
Cabinet Pre-Cocktail Party and then get early VIP Access
(7:00PM-8:00PM) to the Boston Magazine Taste Event
All in all, this occasion hopes to improve upon last years
figures and continue the rising reputation for alleviating the
fears of hunger that The Kitchen Cabinet is establishing.
