Support a Clean and Safe MVT at Central Union Mission’s “HeART and Sole” Fundraiser on Thursday, October 27

Sunday October 30, 2016

None of the MVT CID’s Clean Team Ambassadors’ work to keep our community clean and safe would be possible without Central Union Mission’s “Ready to Work” job training program, which has helped to stabilize and transform the lives of these formerly homeless men and enables them to live productive, independent lives. A great way for you to support MVT CID’s clean and safe efforts is by attending Central Union Mission’s HeART & Sole fundraiser—a special evening of food and fun that brings life and hope to many who struggle in our city. The event will be held Thursday, October 27 from 7-10 pm at Union Market’s Dock5 located at 1309 5th Street NE. Central Union Mission’s largest and most prominent fundraising event, HeART & Sole will feature trendy tastings from dozens of local chefs as well as gourmet selections from the Mission’s training collaboration with DC Central Kitchen and the Ready2Cook program Mission Muffins. Talented chefs and their celebrity “sous chefs” will face off in a creative cooking competition using both exotic ingredients and everyday staples from the Mission’s food pantry. You can also enjoy a signature cocktail and live music while browsing the silent auction and hanging out at the social media lounge meeting local celebrities and making new friends.
