Big Night for Abruzzo: Wed June 24

Come dine for a great cause! On Wednesday, June 24, Nostrana will join other Portland and Seattle restaurants in donating a portion of the evening’s proceeds to the Italian Earthquake Relief Fund. Locally, the event is being coordinated by Seattle based Caffé Vita, rooted in the efforts of the National Italian American Foundation. More information available at bignightforabruzzo.com.

From Caffé Vita: Proceeds will be given directly to Polisportiva Paganica Rugby and used to help rebuild the sports and recreation facility lost in the devastated town of Paganica, the epicenter of the earthquake. Currently, hundreds of displaced youth in Paganica and neighboring communities have no organized sports or facilities because of the destruction resulting from the earthquake.
