MCNABB — Moreno’s on Main will present its first-ever annual give back event for veterans and first responders on May 29 and 30 in McNabb.

This two-day event will include a wide variety of entertainment and fun for all ages, including, but not limited to, music giveaways, local veteran tributes, parade, pancake breakfast, 50/50 drawings, bag tourney, food and much more. One hundred percent of the proceeds will go to the event and split evenly between the two charities. They hope to hit a mark way above $10,000 to donate.

Wounded Warrior Project is a charity and veterans service organization that offers a variety of programs, services and events for wounded veterans of the military actions following Sept. 11, 2001. They provide several programs to assist Wounded Veterans, their families and caregivers.

Garv Sinise Foundation serves our nation’s veterans, first responders and their families by creating and supporting unique programs designed to entertain, educate, inspire, strengthen and build communities. This includes medical equipment, homes, crisis intervention and so much more.

Both charities boast over 87% of donated funds go to the recipients.

With this event, a variety of different items will be needed: chair, tent and table rentals, advertising, T-shirts, prizes, raffle items, entertainment fees, etc. Donations may also be made at First State Bank, McNabb, or dropped at the restaurant, 412 W. Main St. in McNabb.
