December Sunday Supper Benefiting Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity
PinPoint Restaurant’s December Sunday Supper will benefit Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity on December 18. Chef Dean Neff will prepare a special holiday theme three course dinner offered from 5:30 to 9:00pm and is served in a family style offering. The dinner is $35 per person and $10 for kids 3-12. There is also a special limited group seating at 6:00pm, where guests can come and dine together with a small group specifically with a representative of the charity at a special long table in the restaurant that will be served as a true “family” style meal. 10 percent of the proceeds from the food sales at the dinner will benefit Habitat.
Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity builds strength, stability, and self-reliance through homeownership in New Hanover and Pender counties. Low to moderate income families and individuals partner with Cape Fear Habitat for Humanity through the purchase of affordable mortgages, investment of “sweat equity” hours on construction sites, and completion of homeownership education courses. Habitat’s homeownership program assists families and individuals that would typically not qualify for a mortgage loan purchase their own home.
To date, PinPoint Restaurant has raised over $6,200 for area charities during the Sunday Suppers.
