About the Cause:
This year, we’re coming together to support five brave officers —Christopher Tolley, Jack Blowers, Michael Giglio, Justin Campbell, and Casey Hoover—who were injured during the tragic events on April 30th. On this day, a shootout in Charlotte left these officers facing serious injuries while protecting our community. Their dedication and courage have deeply impacted their families and loved ones. In partnership with Salute to Heroes, a nonprofit organization committed to aiding first responders, our goal is to raise $50,000. This support will help these officers and their families navigate through their recovery and rebuild their lives after this heartbreaking incident.
Your participation and donations will directly contribute to providing much-needed assistance to these officers and their families. Together, we can make a significant difference and show our gratitude for their service and sacrifice.
What to Expect:
Craft Beer: Enjoy an array of unique brews from 20+ local breweries.
Delicious Eats: Indulge in delightful bites provided by Noble Food & Pursuits and QC Catering.
Live Music: Groove to live music performances throughout the event.
Hand Crafted Market: Peruse a local market on the Light Rail featuring 40+ local vendors.
Ticket Information:
Tickets are available for a minimum donation of $40, with all proceeds directly benefiting the injured officers and their families. Your support will make a meaningful difference in their lives. Please give what you can, the minimum won't get us to our goal.
Sponsors:
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Truist for their generous support in providing volunteers, and to Tito’s Vodka for contributing spirits and exciting raffle prizes to enhance the festival experience.
Join Us:
Let's come together once again to honor and support those who protect and serve our community. Your participation in the "Craft Brewers for a Cause" festival will help provide crucial support to these officers and their families. Together, we can make a lasting impact.
