OBX Room in The Inn (RITI), Dare County’s only homeless shelter, has announced its first fundraiser as it kicks off the 2024-25 shelter season.
On November 10th, from 11AM to 3PM, RITI will hold its annual Lunch to Go fundraiser in cooperation with Kelly’s OBX Catering.
Shari Fiveash, Executive Director of OBX Room in The Inn, described the annual event:
“Our first event of the season, the annual Lunch to Go fundraiser, has become a beloved tradition among OBX Room In The Inn’s supporters. The event provides much-needed funds as we open RITI for the 2024-25 season. Specifically timed so that our supporters can pick up lunch after church or while out on their Sunday errands, meals are delivered right to their car- making it literally a “grab and go”! In addition, meals can be donated back to the shelter for the enjoyment of our guests. I’m happy to say that this year’s event has been partially underwritten by the General P.X. Kelley Memorial Fund, Performance Food Service, Sysco, US Foods, and the Outer Banks Restaurant Association.”
The drive-thru event will be held at Kelly’s OBX Catering facility which is located at 1004 9th Avenue in Kill Devil Hills. Box lunch choices will feature Fried Chicken or Shrimp and Grits served with salad, side, and dessert.
Tickets are $25 and can be purchased online using the ticket link (https://givebutter.com/fAfp04), or by calling (252) 255-1133.
