BOSTON, Jan. 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ – Broadway Gourmet partners with author Steve Pemberton to celebrate the release of his memoir A Chance In The World.  WCVB- TV Channel 5 hosted the event. Pemberton spoke to a crowd of two hundred friends and supporters followed by a book signing and special catered reception Thursday evening sponsored by Broadway Gourmet. All proceeds from the event went to benefit nationally renowned child and family service agency, The Home For Little Wanderers.

Charlie Bougas, President and CEO of Broadway Gourmet said "Steve Pemberton's memoir, A Chance In The World, is an enlightening and inspiring story of survival against all odds.  It will undoubtedly have a profound impact on the lives of children everywhere. We, at Broadway Gourmet, were honored when asked to participate in tonight's book signing at WCVB studios. As our team discussed the level of support we should offer, one excerpt from the book stood out loud and clear – 'There are 500,000 homeless children in this country. These children have done nothing wrong. They committed no crime. Their only crime is to have been born poor in a rich nation...all children belong to somebody.'

"Our hope is that, as reception sponsor of this magical evening, we can play a small part in supporting The Home For Little Wanderers. If The Home is able to impact the life of just one child in a meaningful way, each of us will have made a difference." 

It was an emotional evening filled with fun and laughter, tears of sadness and joy and the realization of endless possibilities.  The food, beverage and design were creatively planned and executed by Director of Events, Ken Barrett and Executive Chef, Ben Jackson and the service was spectacular.
