The Whitefield Jazz Band joined forces with the No Kid Hungry, Share Our Strength organization, providing music for the “Give Me Five” benefit dinner held at the Cherokee Town & Country Club on Sunday, August 18.
The No Kid Hungry, Share Our Strength organization exists to fight the hunger epidemic among children in America. According to the organization, over 16 million children face hunger each day and do not have the nutritional resources necessary to thrive. The Give Me Five event featured a seated auction, hors d’oeuvres, and a delicious dinner.
“It was a glamorous evening. The jazz band played to rave reviews and all the kids enjoyed supporting such a worthy cause,” said Stacy Quiros, Whitefield fine arts director.
