Sponsor spotlight Run to Work fundraiser at Brigids Bottleshop Oct. 11

The Run to Work fundraiser is scheduled for October 11 at Brigid’s Bottleshop, supporting individuals with disabilities in their pursuit of employment. This year’s event will feature the '80s band Nikki and the Fast Times and an appearance by the Mariner Moose, creating an engaging atmosphere for attendees. Tickets are priced at $20 in advance and $30 at the door, while children can attend for free. The fundraiser benefits Work Opportunities, a non-profit organization established over 60 years ago by parents who aimed to integrate their children into the workforce. The event has grown significantly, with support from local businesses like Brigid’s Bottleshop and Gallagher’s Where You Brew.

Attendees can enjoy food, live music, and participate in a silent auction and raffle. This initiative highlights the ongoing commitment to inclusivity and community support in Edmonds. The event fosters camaraderie and raises awareness about the importance of employment opportunities for people with disabilities.
