Join us for the second annual PCNC cookout for the residents of the Clara-Mateo Alliance, a not-for-profit group that provides shelter and supportive services to people in need and assists them in finding stable housing and developing self sufficiency. In honor of Veteran's Day, we'll have a cookout, serve dinner and visit with the residents, many of whom have served our country in the armed forces. The CMA facilities are located at the VA Hospital in Menlo Park. (This is a rain or shine event.)

Princeton Club of Northern California will purchase the evening's meal and utensils. We got a lot of really good feedback from Clara-Mateo and PCNC volunteers last year; help us make this year's cookout a big success too. To learn more about the event, contact Tom Giles by e-mail or phone.
