Appetite for Life Benefit: February 12, 2010 

The 6th Annual "Appetite for Life" Gala was held Friday, February 12, 2010, at the Metropolitan Ballroom & Clubroom in Minneapolis, MN. This interactive, all-star cooking class, silent auction and culinary event raises funds for the Another Chance for Life Fund, which provides scholarships to individuals and families seeking treatment, recovery and a better quality of life from their gambling addiction. 100% of the event proceeds solely benefit patient and family aid. 

The event was once again hosted by Chefs Larry D'Amico and Seth Bixby Daugherty and WCCO Radio Personality Sue Zelickson. Entertainment was provided by the Benny Weinbeck Orchestra and a Special Celebrity Appearance by Matt Blair rounded out the list of All-Star Personalities associated with the evening.

Project Turnabout is pleased to announce that the 2010 event was our biggest and brightest to date. Raising in excess of $70,000.00 for the Another Chance for Life Fund! Because of our supporters we will be able to help even more patients and families in need of scholarship assistance. Since the Vanguard Program for Compulsive Gambling began, over 2,500 gamblers have been helped. In the last three years, over 300 individuals and families have benefited from scholarship assistance. Thank you!

SAVE THE DATE! The 7th Annual Appetite for Life will be held February 18, 2011.
