August 22, 2024
If balancing a dinner roll off a hockey stick while serving people meals to support more affordable homeownership is on your wish list this fall, then Habitat for Humanity has an event for you this November.
The third annual Habitat for Humanity’s Dinner on Ice Gala will be held on Tuesday, November 19 from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena in downtown Greenville. This fundraiser is supported by the Bon Secours Wellness Arena, the Greenville Swamp Rabbits Hockey Team, and Swamp Rabbits Moving Company. It includes dinner, an auction, networking and more. Semi-formal attire is encouraged, but not required.
“Dinner on Ice is an enchanted evening that supports the mission of Habitat for Humanity of Greenville County. Guests will enjoy a one-of-a-kind, ice-themed dining experience with Greenville Swamp Rabbit hockey team members as table hosts, entertainment, a silent auction and more,” said Monroe Free, and CEO of Habitat Greenville.
Habitat Greenville raised more than $140,000 from 2023’s event, which helped benefit 120 people, close 16 mortgages and complete 50 home repair/weatherization projects. Information on sponsorships and donations for the auction are available here.
“Dinner on Ice is a unique way for our community to support affordable homeownership,” said LaTonya Phillips, President of Habitat Greenville. “As we all know, affordable housing is at a critical juncture in Greenville and Habitat is here to help create a better future for all.”
