Restaurants With Heart Inaugral Dinner

I hope you are enjoying a relaxing summer.

The Palo Alto Auxiliary for Children is happy to announce the inauguration of our new fund raising project, Restaurants With Heart, to benefit Lucille Packard Children's Hospital. Restaurants With Heart is a monthly dining out program, featuring a different Peninsula restaurant and cuisine for two nights each month.

We are happy to welcome Scott's Seafood Restaurant for our first featured Restaurants With Heart dinners, Monday, August 9th, and Tuesday, August 10th. Scott's will donate 50% of the proceeds to LPCH for the medical care of critically ill children. We invite you, your family, friends and neighbors to make reservations to join us for what promises to be an enjoyable and delicious event, all while supporting a very worthwhile medical service provided by one of our nation's leading children's hospital.

Restaurants With Heart calendar for the Fall dinner events:

September 13 and 14, Sultana, Menlo Park

October 12 and 13, Mythos, San Carlos

November 9 and 10, Flaming Fresco, Redwood City.

PAA Members: We need all PAA member's participation to make Restaurants With Hearts a success. You can help by making reservations, by printing and distributing the flyer throughout your community, by telling friends and neighbors about the program. Let's all work together to make Restaurants With Heart a successful fund raising effort. Please contact Marlene Bollhoffer, Committee Chair, and offer to help. Tasks include contacting restaurants, advertising, and serving as hostesses to welcome diners.

See you at Scott's, Bon Appetit!

Welcome to our beautiful new Palo Alto Auxiliary website! I think it looks wonderful. I hope you do too.

Palo Alto Auxiliary’s profound thanks go to Bob Stevens, its creator, for his months of hard work, initiative and talent. His generosity in volunteering to take on this project pro bono has saved P.A.A. the thousands of dollars that a professional design company would have charged.

Our impressive new website will serve as an important asset for our auxiliary. Please visit it often to keep informed about P.A.A. activities and in touch with our members.

Two important upcoming dates to mark on your calendars are:

I hope to see you all on both dates! I will be posting a new blog each month with P.A.A. news and information. “Visit” me again next month to learn the latest, and tell your P.A.A. friends.
