“Food Connection was an absolute joy to work with as our Nonprofit of the Month. They gave ample attention to our partnership to ensure it was a success. They posted on their social media channels, participated in a sale day event at Second Gear, and did a great job of promoting our business. They do incredible work to ease hunger and reduce waste” Jesse Goldman

PROOF of CONCEPT: WNC RELIEF CONCERT was a success!
TOGETHER WE RAISED $18,465!
Shortly after Helene, Sierra Nevada contacted us about partnering for a Relief Concert. Their staff had gotten back to work but few people were coming to the brewery so they were unable to make much in tips.
Together we helped spread the word and we drew a HUGE crowd that not only helped our friends at Food Connection AND Sierra Nevada, it was a true "feel good" opportunity for those who came. It was just what we all needed in the wake of Helene.
(THANK YOU to all who joined us at Sierra Nevada Mills River Brewery to support Food Connection with a special concert at the outdoor amphitheater!)
Thank you, musicians!
