Helping Hands - Hurricane Relief Dinner
January 15 2025 | 5:00 PM501 Race Street, Cincinnati, OH 45202
In September 2024, Hurricane Helene devastated the United States, leaving a profound impact on our friends and neighbors in Appalachia. Asheville, North Carolina, was decimated by unprecedented flooding and the state as a whole experienced over $50 billion in damages. Homes, businesses, and entire communities were left in ruins, and rebuilding efforts are far from over.
At Mita’s, we believe in the power of community, and we’re joining forces with our friend, renowned Chef William Dissen, to raise funds to help him support his staff and rebuild his restaurant. Together, we invite you to support this vital cause.
