On Saturday, August 9th, from 4:00–8:00 p.m., at 1 Masonic Drive in Elizabethtown, White Family Dental will proudly host its 2nd White Out Hunger event! This special evening is more than just a summer celebration—it’s a powerful effort to combat food insecurity right here in our Elizabethtown community.
100% of the proceeds from this year’s White Out Hunger event will support four incredible local organizations that are working daily to ensure our neighbors, especially children, seniors, and families, don’t go without meals:
- Bear Bags of Elizabethtown provides backpacks filled with nutritious, kid-friendly food each weekend during the school year for students who rely on school meals. During the summer, they run “Open Shop” events where families can select pantry staples, frozen goods, and more.
- Elizabethtown Community Housing & Outreach Services (ECHOS) helps individuals and families experiencing housing instability with emergency shelter, case management, and now, a new Weekly Hot Meal Program launching this summer for those who are food insecure.
- Community Cupboard of Elizabethtown serves hundreds of families through its food pantry and hopes to expand services so families in need can shop more frequently. They also support programs like Military Share.
- Elizabethtown Area Senior Center provides seniors with daily activities, companionship, and meals. With the rising need for affordable food, the center is working to expand its senior breakfast program, which has nearly doubled in participants over the last year.
We often do not see the needs of others until we open our eyes and look for them. Many children in our area rely on school meals for their primary nutrition. Bear Bags helps fill the weekend gap, while ECHOS steps in between shelter seasons with hot meals and support. The Cupboard ensures families don’t have to choose between food and bills, and the Senior Center provides nourishment and connection for our older residents. Each of these organizations fills a vital gap—and with your support, we can help them do even more.
So, what is White Out Hunger?
Our event takes inspiration from the elegant Fête en Blanc tradition—a “bring your own” party where guests gather to share food, drinks, and laughter. Each group brings their own meals, drinks, table settings, and decorations (or keeps it casual with takeout and wine!). The only rules: everything must be white—outfits, napkins, and tablecloths—and all guests must be 21 or older.
There will be live entertainment, dancing, and plenty of opportunities to connect with friends and neighbors. While we’ve borrowed the style, we gave our event a new name with purpose: White Out Hunger—because that’s exactly what we aim to do.
