The people, who make New Orleans great, greatly need our help!
So many of you have called Brennan's with offers of prayers, help and
donations and we have truly been overwhelmed. The scope of the
devastation is, well, devastating but we are busy about the task of
helping many friends and family that have come and will continue to come
to Houston.
The cooks, servers and restaurant workers of New Orleans have provided
fabulous times and memories for millions. Now we must remember them in
their time of need. The Commander's Palace Family of Restaurants is
spearheading a relief fund to benefit professionals in the hospitality
industry who will be without jobs as New Orleans is rebuilt.
Whether it's our dedicated employees, or those of our peers, we are
particularly sensitive to the fact that these individuals - all of whom
work long, hard hours and depend on their salary or tips to live - will
have a tough road ahead these coming weeks or months.
Our part of the country is known for taking hospitality very seriously,
and it's right to do something to help these folks who are so devoted to
the industry.
This is where you can help!
We will be hosting an all day event at
Brennan's of Houston,
3300 Smith Street,
713-522-9711
Friday, September 9, from 10 am until 8 pm
To help raise funds and boost spirits!
Stop by for hors d'oeuvres from devoted Houston Restaurants and a glass
of wine with us and remember to invite your friends.
All we are asking is for a minimum donation of $40 per person.
100% of all donations will be directly distributed to the New Orleans
Hospitality Workers Disaster Relief Fund. This fund will be coordinated
by the Greater Houston Community Foundation, a well-established
charitable organization.

Any restaurant, business, or individual that would like to make a
contribution can use the fund as a resource to send donations. Money
will be distributed directly to those people most affected after
qualifying by application.
From the bottom of our hearts THANK YOU from the Brennan Family for all
of your love, caring and concern!
You our valued friends are everything to us!!
The Team at Brennan's of Houston
