You and a guest are invited to an exclusive donor appreciation party in our new office space!

The event will be a progressive vegan wine and cheese event with different pairings at each location. (Please note that there will be non-alcoholic wine choices available at each pairing).

It will take place from 1 to 3:30pm starting in our main office at 34 13th Avenue South, Suite 108, followed by a stop in our new storage room/second space, and finishing two and a half blocks away at 1317 Marshall St NE, with a presentation at 2:30pm (live and virtual). The talk will also be recorded for those who can’t attend.

Full details are below.

Please accept or decline this invitation here. If you can’t make it, you can also request that we send a thank you card to your home!
