Acqua Ristorante Mediterraneo of Westport will celebrate a decade of serving fine food and wine to the Fairfield County community. As a thank you, the restaurant invites everyone to toast its anniversary with complimentary hors d'ouevres on November 8.

A portion of the proceeds from the cash bar will be donated to Save the Children, a Westport-based philanthropic organization.

When: Thursday, November 8th, 5:30 - 7:30 PM

Where: 43 Main Street, Westport

The name of the restaurant, Acqua "which means water in Italian-was the inspiration to share its good fortune with the "Being Healthy to Learn and Learning to be Healthy" program at Save the Children. In developing countries where maintaining steady access to health care, nutrition, sanitation and hygiene is an ongoing challenge, schools have become an important means of delivering health measures and health education to school-aged children. School health and nutrition programs benefit the educational system as well, because illness and malnutrition keep children out of school or leave them too tired and listless to learn. In 2006, Save the Children delivered health and nutrition interventions to approximately 900,000 children in nearly 1,800 schools in 16 countries.
