Bartolotta’s charitable arm is searching for a non-profit to receive the proceeds from their 2018 gala.

Care-a-lotta’s gala in 2018 will raise awareness and funds for a local nonprofit.

A similar gala this year for Safe & Sound, whose mission is to unite residents, youth, law enforcement, and community resources to build safe and empowered neighborhoods.

The upcoming gala and the 2018 event will both take place at the Italian Community Center.

It will be completely staffed by Bartolottas employees.

Non-profit can apply through 5PM on Tuesday, February 28.

“The 2017 Gal-a-lotta in September will bring together the community for an event focused on fundraising and awareness. We are so excited to be able to have the opportunity to continue this tradition and bring on a new partner in 2018,” Jennifer Bartolotta, said Director of Care-a-lotta.

Eligible organizations must be recognized as a 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(6) and meet the minimum requirements outlined in the application, which can be found at the Bartolotta website through the following link: https://www.bartolottas.com/about/care-a-lotta/galalotta-application/ and must be submitted online.
