Giving Tuesday was established in 2012 and is recognized as an international day of giving that harnesses the generosity of millions of people to support causes they believe in and in the communities in which they live.
SFS Nutritional Reads is hosting a unique fundraising event that will offset the publishing costs for our 1st cookbook entitled “From Food Pantry to Table”, which will be published in early 2020. We are projecting a distribution of as few as 1600 cookbooks, but our hopes are to distribute as many as demand makes possible to at least 30 food pantries in the Knoxville – Knox County area starting in early 2020 through November 2021.
Come show your support by attending our silent auction and bidding on some fantastic experiences from our sponsor!
