Taste Project announces today its list of upcoming Celebrity Servers. September is National Hunger Action Month and Fort Worth’s newest nonprofit restaurant, Taste Community Restaurant, is partnering with local celebrities and notables to help encourage its community to take action and end hunger.
Throughout the month of September, Taste Project will host celebrity servers at Taste Community Restaurant to help encourage all Fort Worth residents to come show support for the underlying issue of food insecurity in our community. Celebrities include Mayor Betsy Price; WFAA Daybreak’s Kara Sewell with your favorite Near Southside Nonprofits; Fort Worth Fire Fighters; She is Near Southside (Women Business Operators of the Near Southside District); Tanglewood Moms, and TCU Athletes.
Event dates are as follows (click event for more information):
This is your chance to eat, serve, and give alongside some of Fort Worth’s notables while also helping to end hunger in our community. And, with its new Fall menu launching September 3rd, it’s a great time to “…taste and see the Lord is good” at Taste Community Restaurant.
Taste Community Restaurant is the first project of the Taste Project organization designed to help feed, educate, and serve Tarrant County’s food insecure population, a total of 16.6 percent of Tarrant County’s overall community (Feeding America).
Taste’s solution is a fresh and healthy pay-what-you-can restaurant where everyone in the community, regardless of financial means, can enjoy a healthy, high quality meal, made from seasonal ingredients from the surrounding area. The menu has no prices. Patrons are simply asked to:
- Pay what you can afford;
- Pay what you would typically pay; or
- Pay what you would typically pay, plus a little extra to help a neighbor in need.
To-date, Taste Community Restaurant has served over 40,000 meals; some guests are in need, and others want to help. “…This establishment has helped me on days of need. Not just nutritionally but spiritually. …A beacon of light for me in a very dark time!” –Guest. “I think you’ve changed my view of the world after we ate lunch here today… Thank you so much for making my heart so full.” –Jennifer
Taste Project, and it’s Celebrity Server Team want to encourage all Fort Worth and surrounding area residents to come and eat, volunteer, and give. Because together we can make a difference. Lunch is served Tuesdays thru Fridays from 11am – 2pm; and brunch is served Saturdays and Sundays from 10am – 2pm.
