Grilling for Change
 
Creating positive change in the world one grill at a time! There are a great number of very worthy charities in existence today, which all deserve our attention.  How can one person, with limited time and resources, be expected to make a meaningful contribution?  To effect any kind of change?  As individuals, our efforts may be marginal; but when enough small donations are gathered together, our small part becomes mighty— a small portion of the greater good.   It is in this spirit, and in the spirit of camaraderie, that Grilling for Change was initiated.  Every month or so, we come together, a collection of friends who rarely see each other, and share some good food and some good times.  The host of the evening, who provides a gathering place, a grill, meat and beverage, selects a charity of their choice, and the rest bring any amount we choose to donate (possibly the amount you may have spent if you would have gone out for dinner on this night; or nothing if unable), and a side dish or dessert. The location and guests may vary from month to month, but the objective will not change— to take a moment, share our lives with our friends, and know that our small contribution now goes to make a sizable donation to a worthy cause.  If you are going to host a Grilling for Change event, email us by clicking on the email link at the bottom, right-hand corner of any page. We would love to add your event to the site! Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.  Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.  -Margaret Mead  Total Amount Raised for Charities To Date: $1650... ...and counting!
