Support a Great Cause at the Emilio Nares Foundation’s “Harvest for Hope” Fundraiser

Get ready to treat your taste buds and warm your heart at the 21st Annual Harvest for Hope fundraiser. The Emilio Nares Foundation (ENF) is back with their signature event, and it’s shaping up to be a flavor-packed afternoon that packs a powerful punch against childhood cancer.

Harvest for Hope

From Baja to the Bay, a Culinary Adventure Awaits

Coasterra‘s stunning waterfront venue will transform into a foodie’s paradise. We’re talking cross-border bites and sips from 25 of SoCal’s hottest restaurants, breweries, and wineries. It’s like a culinary tour of the region, minus the passport stamps.

But this isn’t just about indulging our taste buds (though that’s a pretty sweet perk). Every bite and sip at Harvest for Hope supports ENF’s mission to be a lifeline for families navigating the rough waters of childhood cancer.

From providing rides to crucial medical appointments to offering bilingual support groups, ENF has been changing lives since 2003.

And if you’re looking to take a piece of the inspiration home, co-founder Diane Nares will be there with her debut memoir, “His Place At The Table.” It’s a raw, powerful look at loss, hope, and the birth of ENF. Every book sold puts more fuel in the tank of their mission.

The charismatic Carlo Cecchetto is back as host. Expect good eats, great company, and the warm fuzzy feeling that comes from knowing you’re making a difference.

Can’t make it but still want to help? No worries! There are sponsorship opportunities available that’ll let you support from afar. Either way, you’ll be part of a community that’s served over 11,000 families and counting.

See you there!

So, whether you’re a foodie, a philanthropist, or just someone looking for a feel-good Sunday, Harvest for Hope is the place to be. Grab your tickets, bring your appetite, and let’s show childhood cancer who’s boss—one delicious bite at a time.

The event is set for Sunday, September 22, with the festivities kicking off at 2 PM. Don’t miss this chance to make a difference while indulging in some of the best flavors SoCal has to offer.

Purchase tickets or become a sponsor here. To learn more about the Emilio Nares Foundation, visit the website here or follow them on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.

See you there, San Diego!
