Miles for Miracles Fundraiser Brunch

On Sunday, March 9, 2014, Ristorante Olivio, located in Arlington, MA, will open its doors for a special brunch to help raise money for the Boston Children’s Hospital Marathon Team, Miles for Miracles. Traditionally only open for dinner, Executive Chef/Owner Angelo “Uncle Ang” DiGirolamo will be dishing up breakfast classics from 11:00AM to 1:00PM in support of his son, Vince DiGirolamo’s marathon run and fundraising efforts.


Vince has devoted the past few months to training for the 2014 Boston Marathon while raising money to go toward helping patients at Boston Children’s Hospital—such as his 13 year-old patient partner, Jack G. For just $25 per person, family, friends and guests are invited in for a special brunch buffet featuring dishes such as: French toast panini, filled with fig, banana and mascarpone jam, ricotta pancakes and an assortment of frittatas and omelets. Chef DiGirolamo will be donating 100% of  proceeds to his son’s fundraiser, all of which will be used to help Boston Children’s Hospital provide the best possible care to children and their families in a time of need. Reservations are necessary and can be made by calling (781) 648-2300.

In addition to training for the marathon, Vince has created VinceRunsBoston.com, where he posts about his experiences, updates, and his own inspiration for supporters to track his progress. To donate to Vince’s marathon run, please visit http://www.milesformiracles.org/goto/vdigirolamo.
