Bay Street Yard to host July 18 fundraiser supporting Harry Chapin Food Bank

FORT MYERS, Fla. - EntSun -- Bay Street Yard is hosting a fundraiser to support Harry Chapin Food Bank on Friday, July 18, from 6 to 9 p.m. featuring a live performance by Nashville guitarist and singer Dave Isaacs with The Poelker Brothers.

Presented by DeAngelis Diamond Construction, the evening will feature live music by Dave Isaacs with The Poelker Brothers, great food and drinks and a cause worth showing up for. Bay Street Yard is donating 20% of all beverage sales during the event to support Harry Chapin Food Bank, the largest hunger-relief nonprofit and the only Feeding America member in Southwest Florida, serving Charlotte, Collier, Glades, Hendry and Lee counties. There will also be a silent auction including a variety of items and local experiences.

"We are proud to bring the community together in support of a cause that truly makes a difference here in Southwest Florida," said David Fry, co-owner of Bay Street Yard. "At Bay Street Yard, we believe in creating a space where good times meet meaningful impact, and partnering with Harry Chapin for this fundraiser does just that."

It's estimated that one in eight people in Southwest Florida – and one in six children – are food insecure. Harry Chapin Food Bank serves 250,000 neighbors each month who are experiencing hunger, providing access to free food supplied by the nonprofit's 175 mobile food distributions, food pantries, senior centers and schools.
