Dine out for NESCO at Benvenuto’s

By Lawrence Jolón
North/Eastside Senior Coalition

The North/Eastside Senior Coalition (NESCO) invites you to our Dine Out event at Benvenuto’s Italian Grill, located in the Northside TownCenter, Tuesday, Oct. 16, from 11 am–10 pm.

Help support our programming and services for older adults by enjoying a delicious Italian meal. 20 percent of your purchase that day will be given to NESCO. All you have to do is mention NESCO when making your purchase — dining in, ordering carry out, having food delivered, or even purchasing a gift card.

The mission of NESCO is to help older adults remain active, independent and influential in the community. We also assist limited-income older adults in accessing vital needs, including our nutritious meal programs, health benefits, home chore assistance and transportation to appointments so they can remain in their homes longer. NESCO also provides exercise classes; support groups; health, educational and social activities; and volunteer opportunities to keep older adults active in our community. Each year, NESCO serves over 10,000 older adults throughout Dane County.

We thank Benvenuto’s for their generosity and for selecting our organization and supporting our mission. Mark your calendar and take a day off from cooking. Contact us at 243-5252 or info@nescoinc.org with any questions.
