Its billing as “A Beautiful Night in the Garden” proved true for the Hunger Foundation of Southern Ocean when “A Garden Soirée” at The Gables in Beach Haven raised $10,000.

“It was a magical night, honestly. We would like to thank all those who attended and donated to our fight against hunger,” said Hunger Foundation Board President Peg Reynolds when reporting the proceeds of the Sept. 30 fundraising dinner in Beach Haven.
