A Caterer who serves the good of his community.

by YesEvents

YesEvents is a community outreach project that gathers unused and safely handled catering remnants, and then uses those to prepare meals for the working poor and homeless in the greater San Jose area. (go to Yesevents dot org for additional details)

Working together with Catering by Dana and the Absolute Barbecue Company we have fed over 25,285 men, women, and children, and produced 15 outreach events touching the lives of 2285 shelter residents with Joy, laughter and entertainment. At these events we bring fresh hot barbecue (largely supplied by Catering by Dana), live entertainment (donated by caring local artists), and children’s activities/games, to the lives of emergency housing shelter residents in need of encouragement.

Catering by Dana is a well established kind and caring organization that has willingly reached out to help us in our efforts. Without the generosity, trust and fearless donations of CBD, our community outreach efforts would never have been possible. Thank You Dana Stephanie and ALL of the crew of CBD and ABC for all your efforts, together we have managed to make a difference in a difficult world.

• Pros: Caring Professionals who willingly donate leftovers
• Cons: Barbecue can be a bit messy when it tastes so good.
