Park Avenue Catering's Dine & Donate initiative supports nonprofits

Wine Country caterer extraordinaire Bruce Riezenman is about to launch a new program you should know about if you like fine food or are linked with a nonprofit seeking to raise funds during the pandemic.

Park Avenue Catering is excited to announce their new initiative, “Dine & Donate”, where they partner with a different nonprofit every weekend to offer restaurant quality meals for people to experience in their own homes.

Park Avenue's JD Driscoll explains how it works: “Together with the nonprofit, we pick a date to offer a dinner for two, with a seasonal menu designed by our chef and co-owner Ari Weiswasser. This can coincide with a fundraiser (virtual event) that is already planning or as a stand-alone event. From there, together we promote the dinner and date to our clientele and the nonprofit’s supporters via social or email lists. The objective is to reach existing supporters plus the general public in and outside of Sonoma County, which hopefully helps extend their reach, gain new supporters and reengage with their existing donor base.” Park Avenue Catering is able to deliver or ship anywhere in California.

Cost of the dinner is $60 per person ($120 per set) plus delivery. In turn, Park Avenue Catering will donate $20 for every set sold back to the nonprofit. Plus, and perhaps most importantly, unlike a traditional in person event, there are no minimums required. The goal is a sizeable donation for the nonprofit, and the support of our local economy (farmers, artisans, our employees and Park Avenue). A win-win all around!
