About Our Events

Special events are a cornerstone of MANNA's annual fundraising efforts.

MANNA is fortunate to be the beneficiary in many events made possible by the generosity of donors and other caring individuals throughout our community.

The yearly calendar offers something for everyone - a diverse array of events to suit every interest, schedule, and budget. In all cases, extraordinary care and attention to detail is taken to ensure that every guest attending an event has an exciting, meaningful, and memorable experience. MANNA events have become known throughout the Delaware Valley as great events for an even greater cause.

Nourish Awards 2010

 
MANNA celebrated champions of health care and nutrition on May 12 at a deliciously lively supper party with amazing ambience, great music, dancing, a high-energy awards presentation, a temptingly extravagant raffle, art auction and other surprises.

Produced by Evantine Design and Stephen STARR Events, the event honored M•A•C AIDS Fund and M•A•C Cosmetics; the Abramson Cancer Center at Penn Medicine; and R. Duane Perry, Founder, The Food Trust.

Thanks to the Dancers of Pennsylvania Ballet for their amazing performance!

About Our Special Events: ChefAID and A Show of Hands

Non-profit organizations around the nation are experiencing challenges when it comes to raising funds through events. Because of the noticeable decline in attendance, higher cost incurred through event expenses, and fewer chefs and artists who are able to contribute their talents, MANNA's longstanding events ChefAID and A Show of Hands are no longer a part of the events calendar.

While MANNA believes events are for both fund-raising and friend-raising, we recognize that donors have more limits on time and resources. Therefore, MANNA will be hosting fewer, but just as successful opportunities for the extended MANNA family to come together to be informed and inspired, have fun and lend support.

Our past events will always remain a cherished part of MANNA's history; ChefAID and A Show of Hands will not be forgotten. Your ongoing support of the organization and its evolutions will ensure that MANNA can continue to improve health and deliver nourishment seven days a week, all year long, to those who need it most.
