TEAM's 13th annual Men Who Cook fundraiser to go virtual this year

Sharing from TEAM, Inc.'s Facebook page:

TEAM’s signature fundraiser, Men Who Cook, will go virtual! 

We will all miss the men who prepare delicious dishes as well as the fun atmosphere of gathering with friends and family. 

We have decided to still have a fundraiser because your donation is needed more than ever!

This will be our first fundraiser of the year.

We will have community members who have taken their time to demonstrate how they prepare their “go to dishes”. 

We will premier these videos on Sept. 26 at 6 p.m. on our Facebook and Instagram. 

Please stay tuned for more information.

We want to thank our sponsors who continue to support us.
