Southfield Makes a Splash for World Down Syndrome Month!
Hey there, Southfield! Are you ready to raise a glass for a great cause? This October marks the start of something special as Griffin Claw Brewing Company kicks off its annual initiative to support individuals impacted by Down syndrome. That’s right! It’s time to join in on the fun and make a difference through the TRI-21 Project!
What is the TRI-21 Project?
For the fourth year running, Griffin Claw Brewing Company has invited breweries from all over the globe to create unique beers that help raise awareness and funds for this important cause. The project runs from now until World Down Syndrome Day on March 21. It’s not just about beer, folks—this is about community, awareness, and support!
Join the Brewing Fun!
So, what’s the deal? Breweries are invited to brew a special beer using a flexible, open-source recipe. But that’s not all! They can also customize the label artwork to really make it their own. How cool is that? And here’s the best part: a portion of the proceeds from these beers gets donated to GiGi’s Playhouse, an amazing organization that focuses on supporting individuals with Down syndrome.
Support Your Local GiGi’s Playhouse
Speaking of GiGi’s Playhouse, did you know there are 60 branches across the U.S. and Mexico? These wonderful locations provide support, education, and resources for families and individuals impacted by Down syndrome. If your area doesn’t have a brick-and-mortar location, don’t worry! You can still contribute to their virtual programs that extend support where it’s needed the most.
How You Can Get Involved
If you’re curious about how to get involved, head over to www.tri21project.com. The site has everything you need, from the recipe for the TRI-21 beer to links for discounted ingredients and even customizable label artwork. Whether you are a brewery or a beer lover, there’s something for everyone!
The Power of Awareness
Why does this matter? Well, raising awareness about Down syndrome is crucial. The TRI-21 Project isn’t just about enjoying a tasty brew; it’s about fostering inclusivity and understanding. It’s a fantastic way to educate ourselves and our communities while enjoying something we love. And let’s face it: craft beer lovers everywhere can get behind a great reason to sip and support!
Cheers to Change!
As we kick off this special month, let’s raise our glasses to all the breweries participating in the TRI-21 Project. It’s uplifting to see communities come together for such a worthy cause. Whether you’re brewing at home, frequenting your local establishments, or simply spreading the word, every little bit counts. So grab your friends, hit the breweries, and let’s make some noise for World Down Syndrome Month!
Get Brewing, Southfield!
In conclusion, this October brings with it a reason to get together, share a few laughs, and enjoy some delicious brews. The TRI-21 Project is a perfect opportunity to enjoy what you love while making a positive impact. And who knows? You might just discover your new favorite beer in the process! So, let’s rally together, Southfield, and make a heartfelt toast to awareness and support for those with Down syndrome. Cheers!
