UPDATE: it’s open! read article by Wayne Parry of Associated Press: Jon Bon Jovi’s charity restaurant opens in NJ
i like hearing about people giving back to the community – but not a handout. a way for people to help themselves. jon bon jovi will be opening a new restaurant that would serve people whether they can pay or not. in addition, the restaurant will serve healthy foods prepared with local ingredients from new jersey farms.
suggested meal donation is $10, extra donation would go to pay someone else, but if you can’t pay you can volunteer time in the restaurant. look forward to learning more when the place opens this spring.
