Lucky’s Pub Feeding the Hungry in East Providence & Seekonk

Posted

Last December, Lucky’s Pub in East Providence held a “Guest Bartender” fundraising event one week before Christmas. It was a football Sunday afternoon, and the bar was filled with friends of the volunteer bartenders Mike Tortolani, Mike Benevides, Karissa Bailey and Chris Dicecco, who tended bar for four hours while donating all tips to two local food banks. In addition, Lucky’s Pub donated 10% of all receipts for the afternoon, and then added several hundred dollars to reach a final donation of $4,000.00 from the event. Billy Lewis, the proprietor of Lucky’s Pub, pronounced the fundraiser a success and hopes to make it an annual event. We are fortunate to have such community-minded businessmen taking an active role in helping our neighbors in need. On behalf of the families you are helping to feed, we say “Thank You”.
