Taste of the Nation Santa Barbara

100% of ticket sales supports Share Our Strength's efforts to end childhood hunger.

Thank you for joining us at Taste of the Nation Santa Barbara 2010 and making it such a great success! Please check back for upcoming information about Taste of the Nation Santa Barbara 2011.

Share Our Strength’s Taste of the Nation Santa Barbara on May 23, 2010 was a huge success! The event welcomed over 450 people and raised over $34,000 to fight childhood hunger locally and nationally!

Thank you to everyone who joined us at Montecito Country Club to enjoy the specialties of more than 60 of the city’s top restaurants and wineries for a superb evening. Nestled between the Santa Ynez Mountains and the sparkling Pacific Ocean, Montecito Country Club was the ideal spot to enjoy an impressive collection of the best chefs and restaurants in Santa Barbara. Taste of the Nation Santa Barbara provided guests with magnificent panoramic views of Santa Barbara’s coastline, fantastic food, live entertainment, and one of a kind silent and live auction items.

Proceeds locally benefit the Santa Barbara Boys & Girls Club and Food Bank of Santa Barbara County. Both organizations are fighting to end childhood hunger in Santa Barbara.

Each ticket purchased helps support Share Our Strength’s efforts in eliminating childhood hunger as well as our local beneficiaries. In the wake of staggering reports that nearly half of all children in the U.S. will be on food stamps at the some point in their life, there is no time to waste. The time to act is now.

Thank you for your continued support in our mission to ensure that no kid goes hungry and we look forward to seeing you at the Taste of the Nation Santa Barbara 2011!
