The Stars Help Fight Hunger
Hunger affects communities all across the country-rural, urban, and
suburban. Right here in Contra Costa and Solano counties, 1 in 6 families struggle with hunger. The problem is closer than many people think, but so is the solution.
The Food Bank is working harder every day in these tough economic times. Whether by advocating and raising awareness, making donations, or giving of time and energy, everyone can play a role in ending hunger. SING FOR YOUR SUPPER is about helping to bring people together to create a voice for those struggling with hunger. The Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano has been serving the community for 35 years. They provide food to more than 132,000 hungry people in need every month. The goal of SING FOR YOUR SUPPER is to raise awareness and funds for The Food Bank to support its efforts.

It is headed by show business veterans Samantha Samuels and Steven Shore. This is the fourth consecutive year it has presented its SING FOR YOUR SUPPER production, and the first year to pair with The Willows Theatre Company. The first two entries of this year's series were "The Early Elvis Tribute" in August, and September's "Tribute to Motown". Both were sold out events, and this is sure to be one, as well.
