Carmel Education Foundation (CEF) presents CoasterStone as the Premier Gift Sponsor for Taste of Carmel, which will take place on March 3 at 502 East Event Centre, 502 E. Carmel Drive.
Taste of Carmel tickets are selling fast, and more than 1,000 guests from Carmel and surrounding areas are expected to partake in this annual foodie experience. Highlights include food and cocktail tastings from 45 area eateries, a robust silent auction featuring an array of trips, experiences, and unique items, and a raffle for an electric bike or diamond necklace.
As the Event Gift Sponsor, CoasterStone will provide a one-of-a-kind gift for all guests. As the non-profit funding partner of Carmel Clay Schools, CEF raises funds through events like Taste of Carmel to provide teacher grants, scholarships, and programs benefiting Carmel Clay students, staff, and families.
CoasterStone Owner David Glenn is an advocate of Carmel Clay Schools and says he is honored to further CEF’s mission of supporting Carmel students in academic achievement and lifelong learning.
“It is my privilege to be a partner of our public schools, not only as a local business owner, but as a parent,” Glenn said. “I am happy to support our teachers and students by helping to raise funds that provide valuable resources and empowering experiences for all students.”
Glenn is a Hoosier through and through and is a proud graduate of Indiana University. When he is not running one of his many businesses, he can be found spending time with his family, coaching soccer and basketball teams, and promoting Indiana in the global market.
