On Friday, May 19, 2023, The Center in Asbury Park will create a memorable evening of fine food and wonderful entertainment at its highly anticipated Center à la Carte. This extra special event will be held once again at the Berkeley Oceanfront Hotel in Asbury Park. Five hundred guests will enjoy a memorable evening at this sell-out event!!  This is our biggest fundraiser and most anticipated event of the year! 500 guests will dine on delicious fare donated by over 25 restaurants and sip cocktails from an open bar. We will host a 50/50 raffle and guests will bid on extravagant gift baskets.

Gift baskets from a wide variety of businesses add to the excitement of the evening ~ it is consistently the most exciting element of our event! Your continued participation allows us to generate cash donations to continue our mission while providing your business advertising ~ a win-win!

All of the proceeds from this sell-out event go toward assisting people in Monmouth and Ocean counties living with HIV/AIDS. For 30 years, our services include: 

Housing 25 people in our facility
Rent and utility subsidies
Emergency food and hygiene supplies
Serving over 15,000 hot lunches and dinners (2022)
