Article written and provided by the Mennonite Home Communities of Ohio: Mennonite Home Communities of Ohio will host their 3rd Annual Gala on October 10th, 2024. This year’s theme, sponsored by our Platinum Sponsor, Plante Moran, will be “Boots & Bandanas,” and guests will be invited to wear their favorite western attire. MHCO's Gala is a fundraising event to benefit the Mennonite Home Communities of Ohio Benevolent Care Fund, which provides support to care for older adults who have outlived their resources. We would also like to thank our gold sponsors, Hometown Pharmacy and the Water Equipment Company, for their ongoing generous support.
This event will take place at Ebenezer Mennonite Church at 8905 Columbus Grove-Bluffton Road, Bluffton, at 6 p.m. Guests will be treated to a dinner of pulled pork, pulled chicken, baked beans with brisket, smashed potatoes with gravy, coleslaw, corn muffins, and cheesecake. The meal will be catered by City BBQ. Entertainment during the dinner event includes raffles, a silent auction, and a live auction.
