Please join us for a 2021 Virtual Event!
The Taste of Chelsea will be virtual again this year as we continue taking a cautious approach in light of the health impacts our community has experienced and as we wait to see what the potential is for any additional pandemic concerns in the fall.
The pandemic’s impact was severe on our communities, especially on survivors’ isolation, stress, financial instability and even fewer options for safety. Over the last year, HarborCOV has provided financial assistance for a range of pandemic-related costs like hotels, housing, food, medication and technology for hundreds of families to keep them as safe, healthy and connected as possible. Our local restaurants, which have so generously donated their food, staff time and operational costs to the Taste of Chelsea over the last 18 years, are also still working hard for their own survival and recovery from the pandemic.
Co-hosted by HarborCOV and the Chelsea Chamber of Commerce, the highly visible and popular Taste of Chelsea has traditionally brought together corporate sponsors, local businesses, area food and beverage vendors, volunteers, survivors and more than 500 ticket holders who turn out to show their commitment to the cause along the Chelsea waterfront. We know the 18th annual Taste of Chelsea will continue to capture the event’s traditional spirit of community action.
This year’s virtual Taste of Chelsea will encourage people to order takeout or delivery from a list of participating restaurants and virtually share a meal together while hearing local survivor stories, acknowledging the conscientious sponsors helping support recovery from abuse and learning more about the continuing impact of the pandemic on our communities. We hope you’ll continue your sponsorship and remain part of the community solution to end domestic violence. Your sponsorship has directly benefited local survivors and made a significant difference in their lives while also sending a powerful community-awareness message.
