Dear Community Partner,
On Tuesday, May 9th, 2023 PRISM will host its 10th Annual Taste of the ‘Burbs fundraiser. The event will
celebrate the unique role PRISM plays in helping vulnerable members of the community build healthy,
stable lives. We are excited to bring this event back in person to The Metropolitan and Frankie’s Chicago
Style Restaurant.
Funds raised at Taste of the ‘Burbs will support the basic needs services provided to more than 8,900
children, adults, and seniors who come to PRISM seeking healthy food, proper clothing, and housing stability.
For over 50 years, PRISM has relied on our community in order to serve those in need.
You are invited to be a sponsor of this event. In this packet you will find the various sponsorship levels.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out to Alisha Weis aweis@prismmpls.org.
Thank you for supporting PRISM,
Michelle Ness, MSW, LISW
Executive Director, PRISM
