1-23-2025Thank You for Helping Us Raise Over $3000 for the PIDB Fundraiser!
We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who dined, ordered takeout, and even made donations to our Rady Children's Pediatric Inflammatory Brain Disorders (PIDB) Fundraiser. We're thrilled to announce that we raised over $3000, all thanks to our kind-hearted guests. This cause is very close to us, and raising awareness about this lesser known yet treatable condition is crucial. Look out for symptoms like sudden behavioral changes or unexplained symptoms following an illness—these could be signs of PIBD, which happens when an overactive immune system mistakenly targets healthy brain cells, leading to inflammation.
For those in the Scripps Ranch community, you may be aware that the Rady Children's Scripps Ranch Auxiliary is hosting their annual fundraiser dinner on Saturday, April 27th in La Jolla, supporting the PIBD Program. We're excited to attend and contribute an auction item—a wine dinner for 8 at Yanni's. Although tickets are sold out, donations are welcome through the Scripps Ranch Auxiliary at their website. They also have a FaceBook page here.
Your support means the world to us—cheers!
Yanni, Denise, and the YB&G Team
You Helped Us Save the Parking Lot!
The Yanni's Bar & Grill team has really BIG NEWS! The Proposed Supportive Housing Project that was approved to be built in the Park & Ride Lot adjacent to Yanni's has officially been cancelled and will not be built in this location!
Yanni and I are overwhelmed with gratitude and would like to thank each and every one of the Scripps Ranch Community and beyond for all of the never-ending support in saving our business. You tirelessly made phone calls, sent emails, and provided good wishes and a lot of baked goods to us when we were down. Many responded to the Scripps Ranch Civic Association poll asking for the City of San Diego to work with the neighboring businesses of the Scripps Gateway Freeway Association which includes Yanni's, The Residence Inn, Springhill Suites, Chili's, Wendy's, Seaside Pediatric Dentistry and Rady Children's Specialist.
We would not have gotten the positive result without your efforts. We are especially grateful to Council member Marni von Wilpert and her staff who have been in office for only 6 months but have advocated on our behalf and made this issue a top priority by communicating to Mayor Gloria our concerns and ultimately seeing the obstacles for this site and their commitment to finding another suitable site for the project in District 5. Thank you to Mayor Gloria and Staff for recognizing that the Park & Ride Lot was not a suitable location for this project. We would also like to say thank you to Bob Ilko for his continued support and guidance through the entire two-year process as well as the members of the Scripps Gateway Freeway Association.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Yanni and I as well as the entire YB&G team are forever grateful.
