The Tahoe Chamber thanks the community and Revive Coffee & Wine for their generosity
August 15, 2019 (South Lake Tahoe, Calif./Nev.) – The community came together on August 7th for the Tahoe Chamber’s Connect for a Cause Mixer to benefit the local non-profit, SOS Outreach. Attendees connected in the back garden of Revive Coffee & Wine to enjoy delicious appetizers, local beer and wine, raffle prizes, and live music from Bond Collins.
“SOS gives local youth the opportunity to experience the incredible recreational activities that Tahoe has to offer, said Emily Abernathy, Tahoe Chamber Director of Operations. “These kids may not have the resources to get out there on their own and SOS gives them that chance. As a mentor for the program myself I have seen firsthand how SOS changes the lives of children for the better and it was an honor to be able to give back to the program through our Chamber Mixer.”
Close to 50 community members attended the event and together raised $1,050 for SOS Outreach, whose mission is to create a culture of community and empowerment through outdoor programs where kids can discover their enthusiasm for life and learn the skills they need to live it to the fullest and carve their own path. Teresa Papandrea, Senior Regional Director for SOS Outreach, explained that this donation will help the organization significantly as they move into their busy winter program. Revive Coffee & Wine generously provided artisan appetizers and complementary wine and beer, and served as the perfect backdrop for the summer mixer.
