Join us for the Project Magis Sixth Annual Cocktail Reception to support Martha’s Choice Marketplace & Community Farm. As part of Catholic Social Services, Martha’s mission is to build community and distribute healthy food, providing dignified access to individuals and families. It is the largest food pantry in Montgomery County and distributed over 2.3 million pounds of food last year to 4,400 families and roughly 18,000 individuals, nearly half of whom were children.

Come network with financial services, corporate restructuring, M&A, and professional services colleagues while lending a helping hand to others.
