Local restaurant, Desposito’s announces ribbon cutting ceremony to benefit Shelter from the Rain, a local nonprofit helping single mothers

Desposito’s Seafood, Thunderbolt’s newest fresh seafood destination, is thrilled to announce its official ribbon-cutting ceremony on Saturday, January 6, 2024. The community is invited to join in the celebration, which doubles as a fundraiser for a local nonprofit, Shelter from the Rain, dedicated to supporting single mothers in need.

Nestled in the heart of Chatham County, Desposito’s Seafood promises a culinary experience that celebrates the rich bounty of local seafood. From ocean to table, the menu showcases the freshest catches, highlighting the vibrant flavors of the region.

The celebration is from 1 to 6 pm with the ribbon-cutting ceremony and special remarks to take place at 4 pm. Local dignitaries, esteemed guests, and community members are invited to witness this momentous occasion and indulge in a journey of history through Desposito’s delectable offerings with an oyster roast.

In the spirit of community engagement, Desposito’s is proud to host a fundraiser during the event to support Shelter from the Rain. Organizers encourage guests to bring an item off the wishlist for Shelter from the Rain, dedicated to assisting single mothers in our community.

"We believe in giving back to the community that has welcomed us with open arms. By partnering with Shelter from the Rain, we aim to make a positive impact on the lives of single mothers, providing support and opportunities for a brighter future," says Michelle Smith, managing partner of Desposito’s Seafood.
