HOW Merced Honoring Beverley Keefe

HOW IT WORKS: To RSVP, click "reserve" above. Using this mysosevent.com link, you'll pay for your dinner directly to the restaurant. The cost is $25 (plus service fees) per person. This covers your meal, a non-alcoholic beverage, and tax. Our events have open seating on a first-come, first-serve basis. Also, even though our event is titled Helping One Woman, we welcome and encourage men and children to attend—the more the merrier. YOU DO NOT NEED TO PRINT OUT YOUR RSVP RECEIPT. On the night of the event, attendees are asked to give a minimum gift of $10 (cash) to the honoree. This gift is given at the door. If you bring a check for the honoree's gift, please make it out in the honoree's name. There is a prize drawing for which tickets are sold, $1 each or 6 for $5. At the end of the evening, all proceeds from the $10 gift bowl and the prize drawing tickets are handed over to the evening's honoree. During the dinner, attendees are invited to nominate and sponsor an honoree for the next dinner. Each individual can fill out ONE nomination form to nominate a woman in our community who is going through or has gone through, an irreplaceable loss within the past 18 months. The current honoree randomly draws the honoree for the next dinner. The next dinner honoree is announced later that evening. Sponsors agree to provide a biography of their nominee, provide prizes for the prize drawing, and help sell the prize drawing tickets at the next dinner. Raffle prize contributions are always welcome. If you would like to contribute raffle prizes, please reach out to one of our H.O.W. Merced team members or email us at howmerced@gmail.com. If you cannot attend the event, you can send a payment via mail to: H.O.W. Merced, 1475 Hogan, Merced, 95340. Make all checks payable to Beverley Keefe. Please note that contributions are not tax-deductible because the proceeds go directly to our recipient as a gift.
