Brewery launches beer fundraiser to support Make-A-Wish
ALBANY, N.Y. (NEWS10)-- Foam Brewers, a brewery in Burlington, Vermont, is set to launch a new beer to benefit children with critical illnesses in Vermont and New York. According to the brewery, $1 from every "You Are A Light" pour will be donated to the Make-A-Wish programs in Vermont and Northeast New York.
The beer unveiling will be held at the Make-A-Wish Vermont & Northeast New York Wishing Space and Vermont Teddy Bear Factory, 6655 Shelburne Road in Shelburne, Vt. on Wednesday from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Additional businesses will also be donating proceeds to Make-A-Wish. Duke's Public House will be hosting a special Mother's Day Brunch on May 11, where the beer will be served, marking the first day of beer fundraising.
The special brew will be distributed throughout the Burlington area for an ongoing fundraising effort.
"The combined reach of these businesses will help grant more wishes for children with critical illnesses across Vermont and Northeast New York," organizers said.
