Our Story

A Table Set for Kindness

Feasting With Friends is a non-profit organization founded in loving memory of Miles Anthony Cilluffo and in recognition of the everyday heroes who quietly make Summerville and Charleston a better place. What began as one family's way to say thank you has grown into a movement of gratitude, compassion, and connection.

Each year, we invite our community to nominate a deserving team, department, or organization that has gone above and beyond in their service. Once or twice a year, we celebrate them with a full-course Lowcountry feast — whole-hog barbecue, fresh seafood, and southern hospitality included.
