Lardo Hosts Dog Fight! To Raise Money For Sack Lunch PDX and No Kid Hungry

For the past few years a group of chefs that have an affinity towards bicycling have come together as Chefs Cycle for a large fundraiser to raise money for No Kid Hungry. A group of Portland chefs with its team, Sack Lunch PDX, returns for the 300 mile fundraising bike ride in and around the Santa Rosa, California area from May 15-17. The goal for the 275+ participating bicycling chefs is to raise an astonishing $2.4M for t his worthy charity.

No Kid Hungry is connecting kids all across the country with healthy food where they live, learn and play. Every $1 that you donate can help connect a child with up to 10 meals.

So how can you help? On, Saturday, May 5th from Noon-6:00pm, Sack Lunch PDX and Lardo will host Dog Fight!, an afternoon throw down of a good ole corn dog battle.
