The Rotary Club of Wellesley is proud to announce its eighth "Taste of Wellesley" annual fundraiser to support our community. The event will again feature a wide variety of signature dishes from Wellesley restaurants, cafes, caterers, along with live music and auction items that are locally sourced. We will be hosting the event for over 300 guests at The Wellesley Country Club on Thursday, May 22, 2024 from 6:30 until 9 pm.

All of us are experiencing significantly higher costs for food, a necessity of life. For the 400+ low-income families and seniors living in our community, food insecurity has become a much bigger issue. The students at Mass Bay Community College and our homeless veterans are also grappling with food insecurity. The proceeds raised from Taste of Wellesley 2024 will provide meals for our low-income residents and direct support to students of Mass Bay and organizations that support homeless veterans. Rotary volunteers will be distributing the meals prepared by our local restaurants and serving meals for the veterans.
It is through the generosity of our Wellesley restaurants, cafes and caterers that we are able to bring this event to Wellesley. Please thank our local restaurants for their participation in this worthwhile cause.
Our goal for 2024 is to raise a minimum of $25,000 from ticket sales, sponsorships and the silent auction and at the same time, provide a wonderful evening of food, beverages, live entertainment and opportunities to gather in community.
Tickets are on sale at $100.00 through our website: https://wellesleyrotary.org. Assuming the event is not sold out, tickets will be available at the door. For those wishing to purchase tickets in person, please visit the Courtesy desk at Wellesley Roche Bros located at Linden Square, and The Windsor Press, located at 365 Washington Street.
