Haiti Relief Luncheon at West Boca Medical Center Raised $512

Boca Raton, Fla. – West Boca Medical Center and Morrison’s Food Service hosted a Haiti Relief Luncheon last month. There was an array of Haitian food made by Haitian employees.

Organizers donated $1.00 from each combo lunch sold to the Red Cross Haitian Relief Fund. “Mini-Haitian” flags were created that could be purchased for $1.00 and customized with a special tribute message for a loved one affected by the earthquake.

The authentic Haitian menu included: Haitian Broiled White Fish, Queue De Boeuf Braisee (Braised Ox Tail), Groit (Fried Pork), Broccoli Haricot Vert (Green Beans), Diri Jon Jon (Rice Mushrooms), Sucre Bannanna (Sweet Plantain), and Macaroni Au Gratin, to be devoured.

The event raised $256.00, and Morrison’s Food Service matched the amount for a grand total of over $500 that was donated to the American Red Cross Haitian Relief Fund. West Boca Medical Center employees and the general public were all invited and encouraged to enjoy the food in the West Boca Café.
