THE 2014 ATENAS CHARITY CHILI COOK-OFF

February 9, 2014


WHAT A SUCCESS!!!

Last year, the event had over 1,700 attendees and raised a total of $20,000 for the kids at Hogar de Vida - This was an outstanding accomplishment thanks to the many people involved and the outpouring of generosity from many, many people. However, it is difficult to imagine what happened this year:

MANY GREAT SPONSORS  ALONG WITH OVER 2,000 ATTENDEES, AND A FANTASTIC COMMITTEE WHO PUT IT ALL TOGETHER WITH THE SUPPORT OF MANY WONDERFUL VOLUNTEERS - THE END RESULT....

$34,000 

YES, THAT IS CORRECT - A WHOPPING 
$34,000 US DOLLARS!!!

This was an outstanding accomplishment. Stef worked really hard on this as Chairperson for the second year in a row. However, due to an unexpected medical situation at the last minute, she had to turn her responsibilities over to Judy Timson. Judy took the reins and made it happen. Congratulations to Stef, Judy and the entire team for an outstanding piece of work because:

IT'S FOR THE KIDS!!!

And, your efforts are sincerely appreciated.

Now, we have just been informed that - the pole has officially been raised for next year!!
