West Roxbury Friends of Rosie’s Place gives a big, heartfelt thank you to the many longtime and new supporters who joined us on Monday, June 8th, at The Substation in Roslindale for a fun time and a very successful fundraiser to benefit Rosie’s Place and the Roslindale Food Pantry.

This was our second fundraiser in The Substation’s historic, but uniquely contemporary, event space and beer hall.

Guests were welcomed and entertained throughout by the delicious music of Manuel Kaufmann and Alain Pacowski. And after quenching their thirst at the full bar, hungry supporters satisfied their appetite with pizza and other tasty finger foods provided by Wegmans, Sugar Baking Co., Trader Joe’s and Old Friend Pizza.

The Roslindale Food Pantry is located around the corner from The Substation. We were happy to have several RFP volunteers with us and to welcome its new director, Mark Smith, to share information on the expanding services RFP is providing to food insecure families in Roslindale and Hyde Park.
