Today is the day Rhode Island comes together! For 36 hours, your donation to Child & Family during 401Gives goes further thanks to matching gifts and community prizes. Every dollar stays right here in Newport County and across RI to help our neighbors thrive. Give now to make an impact!

As a proud partner of this year’s festival, a portion of the proceeds helps Child & Family continue our 160-year legacy of providing essential foster care, housing, and senior services to our Newport neighbors. Come for the flavors, stay for the cause.

On our 160th anniversary, the Townsend Luncheon remains our most meaningful gathering. Enjoy an elegant afternoon overlooking the Atlantic while hearing firsthand how your support transforms lives!

Child & Family’s Taste of Newport brings together the region’s top restaurants, chefs, and local flavors for an unforgettable evening on the coast.

With 500+ attendees, including regional business leaders and community influencers, Taste of Newport offers sponsors a unique opportunity to align their brand with a highly visible, high-energy experience that brings the community together for impact.
