“We are so incredibly fortunate to be able to come together once again for our annual Party in the Kitchen, which plays a vital role in support of the work we do every day in our community. This amazing event has flourished under the guidance of our wonderful co-chairs – becoming the cornerstone of our annual fundraising efforts,” said Open Hand Executive Director Matthew Pieper. “We’re particularly proud of the fact that 83% of the money we raise at the event goes directly to provide healthy meals and nutrition programming at no charge to the home-bound and medically fragile in our community.”

This culinary-focused event helps Open Hand raises necessary funds to support its programs and services that provide access to home-delivered, health-conscious meals to people with nutrition-sensitive chronic disease and homebound seniors throughout the Atlanta community and state of Georgia.

To attend Party in the Kitchen, guests can purchase tickets for $250 and attendees are invited to wear casually elegant white to the event. For information on sponsorship packages or to purchase tickets, visit PartyintheKitchen.org.
