Help local people who are living with chronic illnesses get the nutrition and support they need to stay as healthy as possible! Join HVCS at the Fishkill Recreation Center on Saturday, November 4, 2017 for a fun-filled breakfast blast from the past. Enjoy an all-you-can-eat cereal and granola buffet including fun mix-ins, fruit, a variety of milks and yogurt (gluten-free and vegan options available) all in a commemorative souvenir bowl. You'll also get bottomless coffee, tea and juice served by your table host. Watch some of your favorite Saturday morning cartoons and bid on fantastic silent auction items--all while raising funds for HVCS' food and nutrition programs.
Children under 12 can attend at no charge!
Our food and nutrition programs serve hundreds of people and families each year, but their government contracts can't fully support them, or they rely entirely on support from caring people like you.
Can't make it on November 4th, or want to make a donation to honor someone else! Send a Cereal-Gram! For a $50 donation, we'll send you or someone you love a commemorative bowl with a mini box of cereal and boxed milk. Plus, your Cereal-Gram will feed a family for a week!
TABLE HOSTS needed! Get a great discount on tickets by signing up as a table host! Make a $200 donation and get 10 tickets (that's a $100 savings!). As a table host, you'll be asked to keep up and serve your table's supply of coffee, tea and juice. We also encourage table hosts to use social media to spread the word about the event (and how about going "live" on Facebook or Instagram while you're there?).
SILENT AUCTION DONATIONS and SPONSORSHIPS also needed. Call (914) 785-8326 to find out how you can get your business involved with this great cause.
The Most Important Meal is presented by Mid-Hudson Subaru & Rhinebeck Ford and is powered by Hudson Valley Federal Credit Union.

Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?
You do not need to bring your printed ticket to the event but it may speed up your entry if you do bring it along. We will have a guest list at the door. Table hosts should submit their guest list by Friday, November 3, 2017. Table hosts will also receive printed tickets to hand out to their guests.
What's a Cereal-Gram?
Cereal-Grams are a way to make a contribution to HVCS' food and nutrition programs and receive a commemorative souvenir bowl, even if you or someone you know can't be there. For a $50 donation, we will send you or someone you know one of the event's custom-printed bowls, a mini box of cereal, a small box of milk (such as Parmalat) and a card showing how your donation helps one of our clients' families. If you select this option, we will contact you to obtain all the information for your shipment.
