'Food, Wine & Heroes' To Benefit SMC Juvenile Delinquency Prevention Programs

REDWOOD CITY-WOODSIDE, CA - From the San Mateo County Sheriff's Activities League: The San Mateo County Sheriff’s Activities League (SAL) is organizing a dinner fundraising, the Food Wine & Heroes Dinner Event. All proceeds will benefit SAL’s juvenile delinquency prevention programs. The Event Title Sponsor is Hannig Law.

Restaurants from San Mateo County will offer their tasty cuisine for all to enjoy, along with wines, beverages and desserts. SAL will recognize a chosen Individual of the Year, Business of the Year, Deputy of the Year and Youth of the Year.

Food Wine & Heroes will take place at the Fox Theater in Redwood City, CA on Thursday, Oct. 12th beginning at 5 p.m.

“The Food Wine & Heroes evening is a catalyst for the San Mateo County community of residents, businesses, public safety and SAL youth to come together and raise funds for one common goal. I look forward each year to volunteering for this event. Knowing we are connecting kids, who are not necessarily exposed to great opportunities, to deputies who become positive allies, mentors, coaches, friends is an amazing feeling. This event is a major fundraiser for SAL and is significant in reaching our most vulnerable youth at the most critical point in their life. I feel honored to be a part of that.” Dani Gasparini, SAL Volunteer.
