As the start of the new school season approaches, PinPoint Restaurant’s August Sunday Supper dinner series will focus on and support Cape Fear Volunteer Center’s Big Buddy Program. The Big Buddy program is a one-on-one mentoring program that matches “at risk” youth ages 5-16 in New Hanover Country with positive adult role models. The mentors spend at least two hours a week with their buddy for a year to help with school assignments, offer encouragement and support and participate in community service activities together. Chef Dean Neff will also highlight regional heritage pig farmer Carolina Heritage Farms who supply pork for the restaurant.

  Patrons can come dine on Sundays in August from 5:30 to 8:00pm for this special three-course Sunday Supper menu which 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 for $25 per person 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 monthly dinners will benefit Cape Fear Volunteer Center’s Big Buddy Program. To date, PinPoint Restaurant has raised over $5,000 for area charities during the Sunday Suppers.
