Thank You for Attending our 19th Annual Feed Me Fresh!
Thank you for your incredible support of MKCCC at our 19th Annual Feed Me Fresh: An Edible Evening event. It was wonderful to connect with you all and share this special night with you. We were so pleased that many of you were able to join us despite the weather! With your generous support, we were able to raise the funds needed to continue the work of supporting families in need.
We would like to thank the many wonderful people who made this year’s Feed Me Fresh event possible such as Chef Tommy Calandrucci of Stone Fire, all of our incredible restaurant supporters, our awesome sponsors, and, of course, every attendee whose support helped turn a rainy evening into a beautiful night of generosity for the many families in our community who rely on MKCCC’s Scholarship Fund.

More About Feed Me Fresh: An Edible Evening
The Feed Me Fresh event, inspired by our award winning Feed Me Fresh program, is a gala to raise scholarship funds for the MKCCC Scholarship Fund. Feed Me Fresh is essential to the Center’s mission, raising nearly half of MKCCC’s scholarship funds each year, and hosting 300 guests in attendance at the beautiful Ivanna Farms. Attendees are treated to an evening of local culinary delights, featuring a cocktail hour of bites provided by a compendium of local restaurants and music by The Four26. The cocktail hour will be followed by our program, during which there will be a seated, three-course meal thoughtfully curated by Tommy Calandrucci of Stone Fire. Our program will also feature a live auction you won’t want to miss!
About MKCCC
Mount Kisco Child Care Center is a nonprofit child care facility, providing equitable access to high quality child care and early education to local families regardless of their ability to pay. For more than 50 years, the MKCCC Scholarship Fund has allowed MKCCC to fulfill its mission by providing scholarships to low-income families who would not otherwise be able to afford the high cost of care. Access to quality, reliable child care and early education has been proven to dramatically change the course of a child’s life and can be the key to helping a family break the cycle of poverty.
However, our work doesn’t end at the Center. Not only do we work to bring care to the hardworking families of Westchester county, MKCCC also advocates on the local, county, and state level for legislature that would make child care accessible for all and help alleviate the burden on working families. Child care is an essential industry and MKCCC stands at the forefront bringing visibility to the needs and challenges child care faces.
