Unleashed LGBTQ+ and The Ivy host monthly happy hour fundraisers to support a rotating lineup of nonprofit organizations, with a focus on AIDS service organizations and community-driven initiatives.
Nonprofit organizations, in addition to that month’s beneficiary, are invited to attend and host a table, share information and promote their upcoming events and initiatives.
“We hope this creates a space where organizations can connect, collaborate and simply enjoy a relaxed environment together,” explained Wesley Smoot, Unleashed LGBTQ+ founder.
