circle of hope logoABOUT CIRCLE OF HOPE: Circle of Hope provides emotional, financial and educational support to those diagnosed with cancer in the Santa Clarita Valley. Circle of Hope is dedicated to the surrounding Santa Clarita Valley community, serving patients and families since 2004. 100% of donations and proceeds remain in the SCV! Circle of Hope welcomes all members of the community that have been affected by cancer of any kind. This includes family, friends, and those who have long-since recovered from the disease. The education and support for the Circle of Hope services are open to everyone.

ABOUT SOLITA TACOS & MARGARITAS: solita Partners Matt Baumayr, Rich Howland and Executive Chef Deborah Schneider, the restaurateurs behind the SOL Cocina brand, have created yet another unique interpretation of contemporary Mexican food, with its own personality, look and distinctive menu. Similar to SOL, solita builds on an appreciation for fresh ingredients, big flavors, and seasonally changing menus. They deliver a Mexican food experience in a way that represents the soul of coastal Baja California.

At the heart of the restaurant and the menu is a wood-fired open grill and oak smoker, the inspiration for Executive Chef Deborah Schneider’s unique takes on familiar Mexican favorites. The bar menu at solita takes an equally fresh approach to traditional Mexican cocktails, featuring fresh fruit-based and agave-sweetened margaritas made with 100% blue agave tequilas. Highlighting the true flavors of Baja, solita Tacos & Margaritas invites diners to experience the simplicity, ruggedness, timelessness and warmth of the region.

    Alcohol contributes to cancer. Kind of like Yoplait doing the pink ribbon for breast cancer awareness and their yogurt contains soy that feeds HR positive breast cancer. I do believe the sugar free yogurt contain artificial sweeteners that contribute to cancer.
