Maucieri’s Italian Bistro
●Mental Health Awareness Shoe Display ●Silent Auction ●Bourbon Raffle ●Smoked Brisket
Join us for an afternoon dedicated to good food, great company, and an important conversation about mental health, suicide prevention, and men’s health awareness.
Hosted in support of the mission of Travel for a Cure, the event brings people together through food, fun, fundraising, and a powerful visual reminder that every life matters.
One of the highlights of this year’s event will be a powerful mental health awareness display featuring 1,440 pairs of shoes. Each pair represents a reminder of the people behind the statistics and the importance of checking in with the people around us. This display is designed to get people talking about mental health, suicide prevention, asking for help, and supporting one another.
Try your luck in our bourbon raffle featuring bottles and bourbon-related prizes. Whether you’re a bourbon enthusiast or simply looking to add something special to your collection, the raffle is another way to support the cause while having some fun.
Browse a variety of Silent Auction items and experiences donated by generous local businesses and supporters. Every bid helps support our efforts to raise awareness and keep important conversations about men’s health going.
Bring your friends, enjoy some great food, enter the bourbon raffle, check out the silent auction, and experience the 1,440-pair shoe display. Most importantly, start a conversation. Check in on someone. Let them know they matter.
