Step OUT for the Chocolate Affair

What: the Chocolate Affair
When: Feb. 9, 6:30 p.m. until 10 p.m.
Where: Baltimore Marriott Waterfront
Cost: $150 per person

Eat chocolate while helping the needy at the 2013 Healthcare for the Homeless Chocolate Affair. Executive Chef Carlos Gomez, formerly of the Hotel Hershey, is preparing a chocolate-inspired dinner. The evening will also feature an hors d’oeuvre reception and a dessert buffet from area restaurants, caterers and chocolatiers. The event takes place Feb. 9, at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront in Harbor East. 

Guests will also hear stories on how the Baltimore nonprofit has helped homeless families. The "Fund-a-Need" auction lets donors fund critical needs. For instance, $25 can provide bus fare to and from a doctor’s office for five mothers; $100 can fund medical  supplies for five families; and $300 supplies immunizations to two children.
