TEAM’s 17th Annual Men Who Cook fundraiser will be held on Saturday, May 3rd!

Join us for an evening of culinary creations from dozens of volunteer chefs in our community, along with drinks, dancing and raffles.

TEAM’s Men Who Cook fundraiser is essential to keep programs such as Meals on Wheels, housing and food support programs, income tax assistance, home heating help, the regional diaper bank, medical transportation for older adults, and so many more running and able to meet the needs of all who are in need of a little help. With thousands of our neighbors turning to TEAM each year in the most difficult of circumstances, we hope you will stand alongside us as we aim to ensure all who turn to us have the support and resources they need. And by attending Men Who Cook, you will be a part of making a meaningful difference in the lives of over 16,000 individuals and families in our community.

Space is limited! Please purchase your tickets as soon as possible. Tickets are all inclusive – all you can eat food, drinks, music & dancing and fun – and can be purchased via check or cash to TEAM, Inc. 30 Elizabeth St, Derby, CT Attn: Men Who Cook.
