The event is scheduled for Aug. 17 at Wyoming Food For Thought, 420 W. 1st St. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the raffle is slated to begin an hour later.

There are five raffle packages, each filled with several high-value items, with even more items to be raffled off individually.

Tickets can be purchased at several partner businesses throughout Natrona County. A full description of the five packages, a list of places to buy tickets and a link to donate directly to Full Plates, Full Hearts can be found online here.

The event will also feature hors d’oeurves and drinks at a cash bar.
