Event Details

More Than Meals is an evening dedicated to celebrating and funding the mission of My Brother's Table. The name reflects the Table's primary values--nourishing food served with hospitality and unconditional love. Every meal served is an opportunity for connection, dignity, and community.

Held on the beautiful rooftop deck at Mission on the Bay, the evening includes music, raffles, fund-a-need opportunities, generous plates of hors d'oeuvres, and a cash bar--all set against the backdrop of an ocean view.
