SoDel Cares, the philanthropic arm of SoDel Concepts, recently donated $10,000 to the Harry K Foundation, a Rehoboth Beach-based nonprofit dedicated to helping Delaware children who are facing food insecurity.

“As a hospitality group, our mission is to feed guests nourishing and delicious food,” said Scott Kammerer, president of SoDel Concepts, which has 12 restaurants in coastal Sussex County. “We take that goal seriously in our restaurants and in our communities. Harry and his foundation members are doing critical work to help those in need.”

Founded by jeweler/entrepreneur Harry Keswani, the Harry K Foundation works with the Food Bank of Delaware to open food pantries in schools as well as community and health centers.

“Harry understands that there are children living in poverty right in the resort towns and the surrounding areas,” Kammerer said. “Thanks to Harry K, there are an increasing number of resources for these families. We at SoDel Concepts are happy to support their efforts.”

The Harry K Foundation Christmas Gala, its biggest fundraiser of the year, will take place Saturday, Dec. 14, at the Rehoboth Beach Country Club. All the funds raised will be used to provide nutritional assistance to children in the community.
