As a charity partner for Eats & Beats Street Fest, The Riverside BIA partnered with Nellie’s Shelter for Women and Children, who were celebrating their 40th anniversary.
Among the festivities Nellie’s had a caking cutting and photo exhibition, A Life Reclaimed by Annie Sakkab.
In addition to their anniversary celebrations, Nellie’s raised over $700 in donations during the event. These funds will go towards supporting Nellie’s kids summer camp programs.
From music, art, cooking, sports, and outings around the city, children from Nellie’s shelter and community will have the opportunity to engage in social, recreational, and educational experiences they otherwise would not have.
