We Are Family! An Open Mic Fundraiser

The Weinand family was turned upside down when their newest addition arrived twelve weeks early. On the heels of this, dad lost his job, and mom was diagnosed with cancer. Over a year later, mom has just completed chemo, dad has found work, and baby is doing quite well. Come together in the new year to celebrate these successes, and raise funds to assist the Weinand family with the significant financial hurdles remaining. Raffle for prizes, sliding scale donations at the door and all benefiting the Weinands.

Event takes place Saturday, January 7, 7 p.m.-1 a.m. at The Hook and Ladder Theater & Lounge, 3010 Minnehaha Ave, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55406
