5/16/22 UPDATE: due to the recent tragedy in our community, this year obviously won't be the same as in previous years.
We've decided to donate a portion of proceeds from this year's anniversary party to the following organizations, who will be using the donations for the purpose of supporting the Jefferson Avenue community and surrounding areas on the East Side of Buffalo.
Feed Buffalo is a Black-led organization with a passion and practice of providing healthy food access to families in need. Feed Buffalo runs a food pantry on the East Side.
Candles In The SUN is a driving force in community advancement by creating safe and impactful experiences through education, mentorship and co-curricular activities for underprivileged youth and young adults. They will be setting up produce stands throughout the city this week.
We hope you'll join us on Thursday. Stay strong Buffalo, we love you all.
We're throwing it back for our 7th Anniversary Party on Thursday May 19th from 5-10pm! We've got some fun features and retro vibes in store for you, including -
