Funds Raised
The 85 Main Oyster Shuck-off raised $2,750 for TEEG recently. Donna Grant, director of TEEG, said 85 Main's James Martin and she have known each other for many years. "When I was talking to him about the TEEG building project and sharing with him the level of community volunteerism and donations from many local businesses, he said that he wanted to be counted among the supporters. He had donated to our auction for four years (he donates a “Spotlight Table for 4 VIP’s at the Oyster Shuck off, and we have raised over $3,500 on this item) He said that while Chuck Bousquet could donate his time to install cabinets and Jeff Bousquet could donate appliances, as a restaurateur he could raise some money at the Oyster Shuck Off and he wanted to help build our Kitchen. It was a great connection, as he in his business and TEEG in our Kitchen both have a goal of feeding the community," she said. Courtesy photo.
