Porcelli's Ristorante Gives Back to Groups in Need

Steven Curtis, owner of Porcelli's Ristorante, announces fundraiser for local college track team.

Porcelli’s Ristorante recently announced it is spearheading a fundraiser for the Warner Pacific College track and field team. “This is the first fundraiser in our ‘Porcelli’s Gives Back’ program, where we will work with various groups to raise money,” said Steven Curtis, owner of Porcelli’s Ristorante. “It is our way of giving back to the community that has given us so much.”

From March 6-13, Porcelli’s will donate a portion of its receipts generated by its patrons. During that time period, Porcelli’s customers that say they are in the restaurant to support the Warner Pacific College track and field team will have approximately 10% of what they spend donated to the team.

“There are so many groups out there that really need to raise money, and fundraisers like this are a win-win situation for all,” said Curtis. “We encourage the entire community to come down to Porcelli’s, get a great deal on some authentic Italian cuisine and help a worthy cause at the same time.”
