Sponsorship Opportunities

 

Thank you for your interest — you’re going to love this year’s Men Who Cook!

As our one and only fundraising event of the year, the proceeds from Men Who Cook go a long way for our guests. Every dollar raised directly supports the comfort, care, and affordability of lodging for patients and their caregivers who travel to Winston-Salem for critical medical treatment.

The event will be held at Legacy Stables & Events at 4151 Thomasville Rd. in Winston-Salem in the Forsyth Barn from 6:30-8:30 pm on Saturday, August 15, 2026.

YOU make this event possible!

Will you become a sponsor today and make their difficult journeys a little easier?
