Join us for a flavorful day at the Mac and Cheese Cook off Fundraiser for The Arc of Arizona! This event is dedicated to supporting The Arc of Arizona, with all proceeds going directly towards helping protect the rights of people with intellectual disabilities. Gather your friends, taste some amazing mac, and vote for your favorite overall mac, all while making a difference.
The Krow is hosting a Macaroni & Cheese Contest benefiting The Arc of Arizona’s team for the Arizona Cardinals Climb in February!
The Arc of Arizona is a statewide nonprofit that promotes and protects the rights of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Through advocacy, education, and community partnerships—including their local chapter Y.E.S. The Arc in the Verde Valley—The Arc works to build inclusion and opportunity across Arizona.
The Arizona Cardinals Climb unites advocates, families, and supporters from across the state to raise funds for inclusion and disability advocacy. Proceeds from the contest will help The Arc of Arizona’s team reach their fundraising goal and continue supporting programs that empower individuals with IDD.
Entry Fee: $10 per person for a tasting pass, allowing you to sample every chili and vote on your favorites.
Fundraiser: 100% of entry fees and donations will go directly to The Arc of Arizona. Every taste and every vote helps The Arc of Arizona continue their mission of protecting people with intellectual disabilities rights!
Prizes: Competitors will vie for who has the best chili showcasing diverse and delicious mac.
Voting: Every taster gets a vote! Cast your ballots in each category to support your favorite mac chefs.
