Carlitos Café y Cantina in Santa Barbara, Cava Restaurant & Bar in Montecito and Dos Carlitos Restaurant & Tequila Bar in Santa Ynez will donate a generous portion of the day’s proceeds from all three restaurants to Hospice of Santa Barbara.

“My family is proud to help increase the services provided to Latino families at Hospice of Santa Barbara,” said Carlos Lopez-Hollis, who owns and operates his family’s trio of renowned restaurants.

Hospice of Santa Barbara is here to care for everyone in the community coping with loss. Hospice of Santa Barbara’s Latino Family Services offers free counseling, support groups and education to help Spanish (and English) speaking adults, teens and children who are experiencing the impact of a life-threatening illness, or grieving the death of a loved one.

In May 2013, Hospice of Santa Barbara served 40 Spanish only speaking families in the community. The nonprofit’s service to the Latino community continues to grow with each passing year. Hospice of Santa Barbara will host two Spanish-language support groups beginning in September: Parenting After Loss and Como Sanar la Perdida de un Hijo/a. For more information, call (805) 563-8820.
