Nov. 20: Food fundraiser at UPenn

POSTED: Friday, November 18, 2011, 11:23 AM

Nick Normile, Penn student and author of the blog Foodie at Fifteen (now 18), has organized a food-centric event for his Wharton management class that will raise money for HIP HOP Inc. (Helping to Inspire Positive and Healthy Opportunities for Progress), an organization aiming to reduce the dropout rate in West Philly high schools via youth empowerment services. He and a team of 10 fellow students have put together a night featuring food from area restaurants and vendors like Lacroix (where Normile used to stage), Fond, Belle Cakery, Fork, Chabaa Thai Bistro, Gia Pronto, Axis Pizza and Chewy’s food truck.

The event, A Night of Food in Houston Hall, will take place in that building (3417 Spruce St.) on UPenn's campus. Ten bucks at the door gets you all the food you want and all proceeds go straight to HIP HOP. It begins at 9 p.m. this coming Sunday, Nov. 20.
