Hospitality is taking care of people. Sometimes the people doing the caring need care too. Giving Kitchen helps food service workers through crisis. Ben’s Friends offers peer support around alcohol and drug use in our industry. Together, that’s community, hope, and a path forward 💙 Happy

💙 Last week we held our very first Blacksburg meeting, and we’re already grateful for everyone who showed up.

Ben’s Friends is a safe space for the food & beverage community to connect, be heard, and support one another - with compassion, acceptance, and no pressure to be anything but yourself.

We’re back tomorrow and every Wednesday at 10am at Rivermill Bar and Grill. Whether you want to share or simply sit and listen, you belong here.
