Restaurant helps ‘Clothe the Children’

Capone’s Pasta & Pizza in Huntington Beach will participate in the

community outreach program “Clothe the Children” with a buffet-style

dinner.

Twice a year, the Huntington Beach Kiwanis Club, the Oak View

Salvation Army and the two Mervyn’s stores in Huntington Beach host

“Clothe the Children.”

Hours before the Mervyn’s opens up its doors to the public, Kiwanis

members spend two hours shopping with the children. The shopping spree is

concluded with breakfast, presents and entertainment. Over the past 12

years of existence, “Clothe the Children” has helped over 1,200 kids and

their families.

In conjunction with its one-year anniversary party, the Italian

restaurant will host the fund-raiser from 6 to 9 p.m. Monday.

Owner and chef, Dino Ferraro will prepare a buffet-style menu of hot

pastas, pizzas, salads, chicken and seafood.

Cost for the event at Capone’s is $15, and includes dinner,

entertainment and surprises. Proceeds will go toward helping put much

needed clothes on children in the community.

Reservations are requested and can be made by calling Capone’s Pasta &

Pizza at (714) 593-2888.

The restaurant is in the Newland Center, 19688 Beach Blvd., Huntington
