BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT
Thousands of people gathered together in Tallahassee for this year’s Tallahassee Beer Festival.
The Tucker center was packed as people were able to check out selections from more than 100 home brewers and breweries.
But what really makes the day so special is how the event gives back to local nonprofits.
LaFonda Heidel is the CEO of Kids Incorporated of the big bend. She talked to me about the positive impact on organizations like hers.
“Absolutely, the more this event grows, the revenues non-profits like mine can receive in order to help our community.”
This is the 5th year of Tallahassee Beerfest.
Those nonprofits will receive support from the event through the United Partners of Human Services. The organization is expected to provide funds to at least 36 nonprofits locally.
