We were delighted to help at a fundraiser for the Santa Barbara Police Foundation. Two donated dinners for 24 guests each garnered some $60,000 to support the foundation's mission. Now, my mission is to make a dinner that is arrestingly good!

Their mission:
The Foundation supports the Santa Barbara Police Department by raising community awareness and providing needed funds for three primary purposes:
To provide information, resources, and financial support for deceased, injured, disabled or catastrophically ill police officers, or employees, of the Santa Barbara Police Department and their families.
To purchase and donate equipment requested by the officers of the Santa Barbara Police Department to support law enforcement efforts.
To provide financial assistance and access to counseling services for the men and women of the Santa Barbara Police Department, and other first responders of the Tri-County area, as deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors.
