Have a fantastic day 🙏

At our most recent event, YOU helped us raise over $1,000 to officially launch The NonEssentials Nonprofit!

We seriously can’t thank everyone enough who came out, supported the musicians, donated, and helped us take this next step.

**NOW IT’S TIME TO SAVE THE DATE!**

Our annual NonEssentials Holiday Bash is happening:

📅 Sunday, December 13th (5pm - 9pm)
📍 Skeleton Key Brewery
🎁 Benefiting

We’re bringing the music, the holiday craziness, and an awesome group of performers together again to help make Christmas a little brighter for local families.

**EVENT DETAILS COMING SOON!** For now, save the date, spread the word, and get ready for one heck of a holiday party!

📸 And a huge shoutout to Photo Moe for these sweet shots from our last event at Nik & Ivy Brewing

We are grateful for our energetic mascot. Michael Gwozdz definitely got down at The Nonessentials Nonprofit Launch Celebration & Fundraiser at Nik & Ivy Brewing. His quirky stage antics add an added element of fun and whimsy to all of our events.
Stay tuned!!! We are still taking donations & will be sharing the final total any day. If you would like to contribute please contact BCA at 630.849.3992. This money will help us with running higher quality charity events, pay for musicians & sound engineers and to help pay the government to become a 501c3 non for profit charitable organization.
Any amount helps!
🙏🦐🙏🦐🙏
