Father's Day, Sunday, June 19, 2011

We thank all who supported the 21st presentation of Real Men Cook(r) Chicago. We thank all the volunteer cooks who reprsent the generosity of men and the contributions of countless men who do the right thing everyday without acknowledgement.

Real Men Cook is not just an event. It is a mission fulfilled; to change the way Father's Day is celebrated into the positive acknowledgement of male responsibility. It is family and community love and an example for our children.

Special thanks to all and prarticular thanks to John Dozier, president of Kennedy King College and to Erwin McEwen, DCFS Director, for being friends and partners in the community as we seek to make a difference.

In keeping with our vision to build healthy families and communities we highly recommend financial health as a goal. Contact CPA and author, Eric January for basic financial principles and strategies to ensure your financial health. Visit www.mosense.com/testimon.html or call 773-955-2400.

Real Men Cook is the largest urban family celebration in the country. Not only does it celebrate
real men who care for the family and community, it is a family food-tasting celebration beyond
compare. Produced annually in ten different cities, it all started in Chicago with the first meeting
in 1989 and the first event in 1990.
 
Leading women like WGN TV's Merri Dee, Fox TV's Robin Robinson, WYCC TV's Deborah Crable
and more, came together with co-founder Yvette Moyo and agreed to each register 10 men to cook. Today, almost 1000 men donate their time and resources to cook and serve the public nationally,
at the event recognized as the national Father's Day celebration. Media, from TIME magazine,
to USA Today and USA Weekend to Southern Living, Ebony, Essence and Black Enterprise cover
the event. Almost a quarter of a million dollars in TV news value is delivered for sponsors and over
one hundred media impressions dispell the myth that there are no real men in urban families
and communities.

Our nonprofit partners sell tickets and receive as much as 50% of the face value of tickets they sell.
This method, combined with donations has delivered over $1 million to nonprofit organizations.

Real Men Cook is presented by a variety of sponsors and Real Men Charities, Inc.
is the presenting nonprofit.

Come on our and celebrate in Chicago. It's not just about food. We will feed your very soul:
