Food for Thought is a neighborhood party and a chance to sample food and drink from establishments across Park Slope. But, most importantly, it is a fundraiser making possible much of the Civic Council’s good work.

Neighborhood restaurants, bars and beverage purveyors generously donate all of the food tastings, crafted cocktails and wine for the evening. Proceeds are awarded to four graduating seniors from each of the John Jay campus high schools. Scholarship recipients are selected for demonstrating exceptional commitment to community service.
