Help or High Water II Volunteer Fair

Come out to the Union Project (801 Negley  15206) on Sept. 21, have a drink, and start building a more vibrant city by meeting amazing people from a wide range of local volunteer groups. Open to all ages, all abilities, anyone and everyone who wants to get active and give back, but is unsure where to start. 

The first "Help or High Water" event in January was such a success -- hundreds of volunteers, dozens of nonprofit agencies in attendance -- that Pittsburgh Cares is organizing another to commemorate its 25th year of serving the Pittsburgh region.

Get to know a bit more about the evening's beneficiary, Pittsburgh Cares, which works to advance a culture of volunteerism and civic engagement in the region. Pittsburgh Cares matches non-profits with volunteers of all ages, and organizes one-time and recurring volunteer activities.

The celebration includes food trucks, beer from Full Pint Brewing, wine from J&D Cellars, Blue Diamond Vodka, Maggie's Farm Rum, Red Star Kombucha, celebrity bartenders, and more. Bring your friends, bring your wallets (suggested $5 at the door), and bring your willingness to improve your community by supporting one (or more) of Pittsburgh's many worthy charities and service agencies.
