Gwinnett Beer Fest donates to The Chris Singleton Foundation

September 26th marked the first Annual Gwinnett Beer Fest at Coolray Field, and also created an opportunity for the event organizers to “give back.” The event, staffed largely by volunteers, donated a portion of proceeds from the first year event to a local nonprofit organization, The Chris Singleton Foundation.

Former Major League Baseball player, Chris Singleton, founded the organization with the mission to provide financial support to organizations that are making a critical impact in areas such as at-risk youth, ending childhood slavery, or providing clean water access. The portion of the proceeds donated by the festival will directly benefit the program Essential2Life; a program designed to create life-changes for urban youth through mentoring and educational/career opportunity programs in the Greater Atlanta community.

The Chris Singleton Foundation participates in events and fundraisers in support of Essential2Life and continues to partner with the organization to raise money for the additional resources this growing organization needs. By donating over $2,000 this year, the organizers of the Gwinnett Beer Fest are proud to make a donation to support needs within the local community.
