The 2nd Annual "Top Shelter Chef Contest" is March 2 at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church and will benefit three Delaware County homeless shelters.

Amateur chefs from five Delaware County churches and synagogues will don their aprons and face-off for the honor of "Top Shelter Chef" in a fundraiser to benefit three Delaware County shelters.

The 2nd Annual "Top Shelter Chef Contest" is scheduled for Saturday, March 2 at 6 p.m. at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church (located at 229 Powell Lane in Upper Darby, PA 19082).
