Pride+Purpose Day @East Brother Beer Co.
Pride + Purpose Day is more than a taproom event—it’s a celebration of what makes Richmond strong.
This Friday, April 18th, we’re opening our doors (and our hearts) for our Second Annual Pride + Purpose Day—an afternoon of good beer, great food, and giving back to the community we call home.
From 3–9 p.m., 10% of all taproom sales will go to @richmondpromise, a nonprofit working to ensure every Richmond student has a pathway to higher education. That’s not just a donation—it’s an investment in the next generation of leaders, dreamers, and changemakers.
Between sips of award-winning beer and bites from Mr. Dim Sum, we invite you to connect with the Richmond Promise team (on-site from 5–6 p.m.), learn about their work, and see how every pint poured helps fund futures.
Time: 3 p.m.-9 p.m.
Meet the RP Team from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
Location: East Brother Beer Co. Taproom, Richmond, CA
