Mat-Su Valley - Happy Valentine’s Day!  The Hearts4Hunger Committee of dedicated and hard working volunteers have been diligently putting together an event for folks in our community to attend and help the MatSu Food Bank with their mission to fight food insecurity.  This wonderful event is being held Saturday,  February 18th, at the Curtis D. Menard Sports Complex, Wasilla, Alaska.  Doors will open at 5:30pm, Jalapenos Mexican Restaurant will be hosting a cash bar, serving up fabulous adult beverages.  Alaska Events & Catering has put together a Prime Rib/Seafood smorgasbord that will delight your taste buds.  This year’s entertainment is brought to you by Peak Entertainment, presenting Wendy Maybury, comedienne. 

The MatSu Food Bank and the Hearts4Hunger wish to express our gratitude to all of our sponsors and donors, who donated spectacular items to be auctioned off in our Live & Silent Auctions.  There are (2) Raffles too, One for a Booze Cart (filled with lots of great booze) and One Gun Raffle, tickets are $20 each for either one.

We still have some tickets left, please call (907)357-3769 for tickets to this annual event.  Proceeds for this event will be going to the Food Bank and Anchorage Police & Fire Chaplains, so that we will be able to continue serving our community.
