North End’s finest
restaurants – Antico Forno, Lucca, Prezza, Taranta, Terramia and Tresca –
among participants; Proceeds to benefit the High Hopes Fund at Joslin
Diabetes Center
WHAT: Boston’s
most celebrated North End chefs
will host this year’s
CityFeast – Dining Out to
Conquer Diabetes on Sunday,
Jan. 28. Carla Gomes, the
mother of a child with diabetes
and owner of both Antico Forno
and Terramia, organized the
event to help raise awareness of
the disease and support Joslin
Diabetes Center’s mission of
conquering diabetes in all of
its forms. For $150 per person
(tax and gratuity included),
guests will enjoy a five-course
meal and complementary wines at
one of the following
restaurants: Antico Forno,
Lucca, Prezza,
Taranta, Terramia or Tresca.
Credit card reservations for
dinner, beginning at 6:00 p.m.
on Jan. 28, can be made through
the Joslin Development Office at
617.732.2412. All
proceeds from the evening will
benefit the High Hopes Fund
at Joslin Diabetes Center
in Boston.
WHY: The Centers for Disease Control estimates that 20.8 million Americans have
diabetes, up 14 percent since 2003. That means, almost every man, woman and
child will be touched by the disease at some point during their lifetime.
But there is reason to be hopeful. Thanks to events like
CityFeast –
Dining Out to Conquer Diabetes,
support for the research, care and education that Joslin Diabetes Center
provides is available for patients and families living with diabetes. The
High Hopes Fund in particular generates critical resources to support
Joslin’s multi-dimensional efforts to discover, create and distribute new
knowledge about diabetes prevention and treatment, expanding the worldwide
efforts to combat this growing disease.
Ms. Gomes explains, “My son has type 1
diabetes and is a Joslin patient. For the past 14 years, Joslin has made an
extremely challenging disease manageable, and has given him the best
possible quality of life. With CityFeast: Dining Out to Conquer Diabetes,
my fellow restaurateurs and I hope to offer guests an evening of great food
with classic North End charm and hospitality, as well as provide a wonderful
opportunity to support the important and necessary research, care and
education at Joslin.”
