Benefit Days

We believe in supporting our local organizations and charities that have a broad impact on our community. This is why Simply Gourmet sponsors benefit days for non-profit organizations including schools, churches, sports teams and other various fundraisers. Here are a few simple steps for having a benefit day at Simply Gourmet:

  • Organize your group so you can pick your day. You may pick a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. We will assist you with selecting an available date that is convenient for your group. Please book your date a minimum of three (3) weeks in advance.
  • Confirm the date by calling Mike at 845.214.0300. We will need you to complete and sign a simple application.
  • Promote your benefit, and tell everyone the date of your event. Get family, friends, neighbors, business associates, etc. to eat in the café or purchase our prepared meals on your day. Inform your patrons to let our staff know they are here for your specific benefit. We will donate 15% of the sales generated from those people who dine-in or purchase a prepared meal. As a result, the more people who come, the more money you make! In an effort to be sensitive to our other guests, we cannot allow signs or soliciting at the café.

These benefit days can be very successful because they are “win-win.” The group wins by raising money for their cause. Simply Gourmet wins by supporting our guest’s charities and gaining new guests. Please give us a call so we can set a special night for you and your group. We look forward to working with you and learning more about your organization.
