A philanthropic fall event series—named “trepwork for good” and hosted by trepwise & Eiffel Society—highlights two local non-profits monthly with Pay it Forward Happy Hour events to increase awareness and fundraising opportunities for each participating organization.
This month’s event will have a “Community Sustainability” theme and will showcase two sustainability-driven non-profits: Friends of Lafitte Greenway and Urban Conservancy.
September’s “trepwork for good” takes place this Wednesday, September 26 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Eiffel Society, 2040 Saint Charles Ave. Attendance is free and open to all ages, but organizers ask that you register on Eventbrite here.
20 percent of the bar proceeds will be split by both organizations, which will also be collecting suggested donations at the door. Each organization will have the opportunity to address the crowd and will have their own fundraising activities on-site.
Happy hour prices will be available all night long with $3 beers, $5 house wine, $6 well drinks and signature cocktails. Guests can enjoy curated cocktails such as the “French Drain 75,” a gin-based champagne cocktail, as well as the “Dark and Storm-Ready,” a bourbon-based ginger beer cocktail, both at $6.
Those who cannot attend can donate directly to each cause:
