The 10th All Colorado Beer Festival is over, and it was a success!
We raised enough revenue to donate $82,000, and we are now handing out the beneficiary checks. So far we have given The Home Front Cares $23,000, the Empty Stocking Fund $23,000, and the ACBF Scholarship Fund $10,000. That leaves one more check of $26,000 that will be presented to THEATREWORKS on Friday, December 9th.
Each ticket buyer helped make this possible. We estimate that 67% of the price of each ticket is a donation to the beneficiaries! Congratulations to each of you for your support of Colorado Springs nonprofits.

This morning the ACBF crew presented its second BIG check. This one goes to the UCCS Scholarship Fund; specifically to the All Colorado Beer Festival Scholarship. This scholarship fund provides needed support, primarily to seniors, to get over the hump in finishing a degree. The funds can go to anything from buying books or paying tuition and fees to getting a set of tires for the car or paying for day care – whatever it takes to help the student graduate.
The check this year is for $8,000 and should help at least 5-10 students.

Our third beneficiary check went to THEATREWORKS. This year we increased or donation by 20% to $24,000. THEATREWORKS remains the largest single organizational donor at THEATREWORKS. Almost the entire Festival Planning Committee was on hand to present the check to THEATREWORKS Artistic Director, Murray Ross. After the presentation, we stayed for the show and laughed our socks off. If you have time in the busy holiday season, treat yourself to a show at THEATREWORKS – The Lying Kind.
