Heading Home’s mission is to end homelessness in Greater Boston by providing housing in conjunction with effective support services to help change the conditions that create homelessness. 

The Heading Home HOUSEWARMING brings together the areas greatest chefs and restaurants that reflect the very best of Boston.  The over 700 guests in attendance will enjoy a fun evening including tasty food from 30 of Boston's finest restaurants, lots of networking, and a live auction.  This year we will also be bringing the Heading Home mission to life by creating an in-room fundraising opportunity that showcases the types of goods and services Heading Home provides to end homelessness and how they help people to rebuild their lives. This year instead of a silent auction – the event will introduce the concept of a registry that will feature meaningful and personal ways for everyone to make a difference in the lives of the homeless, regardless of level of gift.  Past restaurant participants have included: 

Aujourd'hui ▫ The Catered Affair ▫ East Coast Grill ▫ Elephant Walk ▫ Icarus ▫ La Morra Restaurant ▫ Legal Sea Foods ▫ MASA ▫ Pigalle ▫ Redbones ▫ Savino's ▫ Sel de la Terre ▫ Stella ▫ The Oak Room ▫ Tremont 647 & Sister Sorel
