October 29: Fundraising & Friend-Raising At Tresca To Help Fight Cystic Fibrosis

Tresca, one of the North End's most exceptional dining destinations, is generously joining with Team Trevor to host a special fundraising event from 6 - 9 p.m. on Tuesday, October 29, to benefit research for Cystic Fibrosis.   

For a $25 donation, guests will enjoy a selection of passed hors d'oeuvres showcasing Tresca's Italian delicacies, a cash bar, raffle prizes and an auction featuring Red Sox and New England Patriots' memorabilia, goodies from Dunkin' Donuts and more.  Plus, every guest will receive a complimentary $25 Tresca Gift Card to be used during a future visit.
 
Special celebrity guests for the evening will include Boston Police Officer Jennifer Penton, featured on TNT's reality-docudrama series "Boston's Finest."  (Season Two of "Boston's Finest" debuts on TNT on November 26.) 

Team Trevor (A 501c3 Charity Resolved To Cure and Control Cystic Fibrosis) is named for a bright young man whose daily medical routine would make most people grow weary.  Diagnosed with CF when he was only five months old, Trevor is now a bright 14 year old who knows that the future of all CF patients lies in lifesaving research and medical programs.  Trevor will be on hand at Tresca to serve as "Celebrity Chef" for the night.

Cystic Fibrosis is a genetic disorder that causes severe lung damage and nutritional deficiencies in approximately 30,000 kids and young adults nationwide. Currently there is no cure.  The answer lies in new research.

Tresca is located at 233 Hanover Street in Boston's North End.  Space is limited.  Information and tickets: trescateamtrevor.eventbrite.com/ or 207-518-8880. Valet parking will be available.
