The Bruery Reserve Society Event

This last weekend was St. Patty’s Day and Placentia’s finest brewing company, The Bruery, held their annual Reserve Society get-together at the Phoenix Club in Anaheim.

The Bruery was kind enough to invite FWM to volunteer at the event and bring along some wheelchairs to share what we’re all about. It was a great time and we had amazing opportunities to spread the word about FWM and how people can get involved with giving the gift mobility to others around the world.

We’d like to give a HUGE thank you to The Bruery, their staff and all their Reserve Society members for supporting us, as well as our awesome volunteers who came out on a blustery Saturday to make sure that a great time was had by all. Thanks everybody–check out the photos below!

Have an event coming up that you’d like to get Free Wheelchair Mission involved in? Head here to send us an email or call and let’s see how we can partner up!
