Sauced BBQ in Walnut Creek Gifts $2K to Contra Costa Meals on Wheels

CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, CA – Meals on Wheels and Senior Outreach Services in Contra Costa County recently received a $2,000 donation from Sauced BBQ & Spirits, the newly opened eatery in Walnut Creek.

Sauced BBQ & Spirits opened in downtown Walnut Creek in November, and Sauced owners, Barrett Gomes and Brenden Scanian, chose to donate proceeds from tickets sold during its "soft opening" to a non-profit community organization.

Great news for MOWSOS!

"The decision to partner with Meals on Wheels and Senior Outreach Services was an easy one," said Dave Schaefer, general manager of the Walnut Creek location. "MOWSOS is integral in providing those in need two things that Sauced BBQ & Spirits are most passionate about - meals and service."

"The donation from a Sauced BBQ & Spirits will immensely help our efforts to provide much-needed services to Contra Costa seniors," says Elaine Clark, MOWSOS Chief Executive Officer. "We are grateful to Sauced for this very generous gift."
