New Orleans Saints LB Demario Davis, a three-time Pro Bowl selection, three-time team captain, and Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year nominee, will host his annual Dining for Dreams fundraiser on October 13 at Brasa Restaurant in New Orleans. Dining for Dreams, the signature fundraising event for the Devoted Dreamers Foundation, will feature Davis and his Saints teammates serving as waiters for an evening of fine dining and community support. Attendees will be able to interact up close and personally with their favorite Saints players while raising funds to support Devoted Dreamers' mission to equip the next generation of leaders with the tools they need to succeed spiritually, mentally, and physically.
Tickets and sponsorships are on sale now and available at www.devoteddreamers.org.
"This event represents everything we stand for - bringing the community together while investing in our city and its young people," said Davis. "New Orleans has always been there for us, and now it's our turn to be there for New Orleans."
This year's Dining for Dreams supports the foundation's launch of "Fueling Dreams," its most significant community investment yet, committed to impacting over 5,000 people in New Orleans. The initiative includes micro-grants to local small businesses and nonprofits throughout the Saints season, mentoring young leaders through a partnership with The 18th Ward, and bringing families together through holiday events and food pantry support.
Partnership opportunities for the event range from Bronze level ($2,500) to Presenting Partner ($20,000), with benefits including VIP tickets, Saints game tickets, social media promotion, and personal appearances with Davis. In-kind partnerships are also available for companies interested in supporting gift bags or donating auction items.
