Boston Bites Back!

The way the people of Boston reacted to the bombing at the Boston Marathon was nothing short of incredible. In its immediate aftermath we saw complete strangers supporting each other and caring for those that were injured many of whom are still recovering today. On Wednesday, May 15 in Fenway Park, Boston’s best restaurants are going to be doing their part to help with a charity fundraiser called Boston Bites Back! Many of the country’s best chefs will be serving great food from Fenway’s concession stands and all proceeds will go to help the families most affected by the tragic events that unfolded during Monday’s Boston Marathon.

You buy tickets at the Boston Bites Back! website and if you wish to contribute to the charity they are raising money for you can do so here.
