Pho-Undraiser:
Join us for an Authentic Vietnamese Noodle Soup Dinner!
Bun Rieu, Vegan Pho, & Spring Rolls
Sunday, March 22, 6-9 pm
at Kismet in Montpelier
Reservations encouraged, to facilitate prompt seating.
The dinner prices are donations on a sliding scale.
Our suggested prices are
A bowl of Vegan Pho: $12-$35
A bowl of Bun Rieu: $15-$40.
A side of 2 Spring Rolls: $5-$500, they are that good ;)
It costs us about $6 a bowl of soup, since we are primarily using local ingredients. We hope folks enjoy the meal and donate what they can to a worthy cause. We prefer cash, but we will have the option of card payments through the gofundme page.
Drink proceeds go to Kismet, and bar tips benefit the Pho-Undraiser

Funds contribute to the building projects we will be completing for Rich's family while we are in Vietnam: installing windows, roof repair, and building a chicken coop. We will be in Vietnam in April-May of this year, and are bringing over $7,000 of goods for Rich's family.
My good friend, Rich Enuol, has been a political refugee in this country for 14 years. Since then, he hasn't been allowed to visit Vietnam or his family that lives there in the highlands.
But now he's making the journey back, both to reunite with his family and to help with building projects to improve their lives. You can read more about his situation here:

Rich is an amazing guy with an incredible story who has worked so hard for years to support his family. Any help you have to give to help him make the journey is so greatly appreciated, and if you can't make it to Dinner, consider making a donation to the cause at Rich's GoFundMe page, http://www.gofundme.com/reunitevn
Hope to see you there!
Many Thanks!
