Join us at VolunBEERS on Tuesday, July 14, our quarterly fundraiser and service project! This event is a way to engage the community in service through our unique approach involving a local nonprofit, HOSD, and a local brewery, winery or restaurant. Our July VolunBEERS is dedicated to Encanto Elementary, a local Title 1 school supporting 400 students annually. We'll be packing school supplies for their students to receive before school starts back up! In addition to our project, we will be hosting a back to school drive and are requesting new items such as writing materials, backpacks, pencil pouches, and anything else school-related. We're also excited to share that another silent auction will be taking place. Please note that individuals must be at VolunBEERS to place their bids. Space and supplies are limited, so we recommend buying your tickets early.
