Causes & Cocktails is a series of events that bring together civic-minded young professionals to learn about important causes impacting the local community. These events are an opportunity to connect with local nonprofits working to make a difference and develop friendships with peers who also want to give back.

The events are free to attend. We ask that you register in advance for planning purposes.
