And that’s a wrap on another amazing Paws & Pours! 🍷🐾
We had the best time bringing together our employees, donors, volunteers, sponsors, community partners, and so many new friends for a day filled with fun, connection, and impact.
While Paws & Pours is a celebration of dogs and community, it’s also something much deeper for us.
It’s a chance to celebrate our incredible team of adults with disabilities who show up every day with dedication and pride, and to recognize the community that helps make meaningful employment possible. 🩷
We’re so grateful to everyone who helped bring this event to life: our sponsors, silent auction donors, vendors, volunteers, Board of Directors, and every single person who purchased a ticket.
Thank you for believing in inclusive employment and for helping us continue creating opportunities for our team!
Shoutout to those who helped us put on this event and make it such a success!
