The Rapid City community has come together once again to help a local organization. This time, St. Thomas More Middle School leads the charge.

Fork Real Café is a place where food and community intersect in Rapid City. This unique café has become a cornerstone of the community, serving delicious meals to people from all walks of life.

Attendees will have the opportunity to taste delicious food samples, and have a chance to win a variety of food experiences–from full Thanksgiving meals made to order or a 5-course meal made in-home, to a spaghetti splash dinner event, or amazing specialty cakes—all donated by the talented chefs featured at the Dinner Auction.

We are a better place thanks to the fantastic individuals who volunteer on a regular basis at Fork Real Community Café. One of those amazing people is Laura Cann
