Announcing the 2025 "Claws for a Cause"
Maine Lobster Take-Out Dinner Fundraiser

Every summer, the Watsonville Rotary Club Foundation hosts its annual "Claws for a Cause" Maine Lobster Take-Out Dinner Fundraiser, this year on Saturday, August 16, from 2-4 p.m.

This unique dinner fundraiser features take-out steam pots of uncooked Maine Lobster Dinners for 2 or 4 lobster-loving patrons who simply drive up to the door of the Watsonville Elks Lodge to collect their pre-paid feasts to take home and cook.

Our "Claws for a Cause" Maine Lobster Dinner Fundraiser has been a popular annual event, selling up to 240 individual dinners per year and attracting continued generous support from local business sponsors.

Tickets are available directly from Watsonville Rotary by calling Rotarian, Kelly Anderson at (425)241-9010 or email her at kejelly128@gmail.com. For more details on the event or to purchase tickets on line (for a fee) visit our secure Eventbrite.com ordering page.

All event proceeds are used to fund Watsonville Rotary Club's grants to local nonprofits serving vulnerable children and youth residing in Watsonville and the Greater Pajaro Valley. Last year's event helped to generate $25,000 in grants distributed to seven local nonprofit organizations serving Pajaro Valley children and youth.

It's our privilege to recognize these (and others as the list is updated) generous sponsors for their role in generously supporting this event.
