The Pig + Fig Caf will present a fundraising dinner to benefit Self Help, Inc. at 6 p.m. Sept. 10. Each of the six courses will feature farm to table dishes paired with an array of Rhone varietal wines from Pig + Fig Caf owner Laura Crucets private collection.
Tickets are $95 per person and can be purchased on their Eventbrite Page by clicking here.
Crucet will donate 100 percent of the profits from the dinner to Self Help. The local non-profit offers assistance to meet peoples basic needs. They will help a family pay for groceries, pay a utility bill, prevent an eviction for a family with young children, and provide emergency lodging for homeless people.
I first heard about Self Help when I was working at another restaurant, Crucet said. They helped one of my co-workers get into an apartment.
At the time, Crucets co-worker made $12 an hour as a line cook. He was earning too much to get any help from the state, and yet there was no way he would be able to afford the deposit to get into an apartment. Self Help, Inc. paid the deposit so he could have a place to live.
Now that Crucet owns her own restaurant, she is giving back to the organization that helps so many people. Crucet said she strongly believes that these services are especially important in Los Alamos.
If youre not an employee at the lab its hard to make ends meet here, she said. If you make $40,000 a year, you wont be able to make rent. There is a struggling middle class here.
What does that struggling middle class look like?
Self Help, Inc. is honored to collaborate on fund raising events with Chef Laura at Pig and Fig, Morris-Bond said. Our last event with Chef Laura sold out quickly and received wonderful kudos for the menu and service. We are grateful to have strong community partnerships with a successful small business - Pig and Fig!
The fundraising dinner is at The Pig + Fig restaurant at 35 Rover Blvd. Suite G in White Rock. Order tickets here.
Self Help, Inc. has been providing emergency financial assistance for basic needs such as utility payments, housing costs, groceries and car repairs since 1969. The agency, a United Way Community Partner, also provides seed money to start small businesses/cottage industries in the endeavor to become self-reliant. The website ishttp://www.selfhelpla.org/.
