FAQ

Is there a cost to attend?
No, you're someone's guest. You'll have the chance to invest in businesses in underserved communities as you feel led.

When is the deadline to RSVP?
Please RSVP by Saturday, September 19th.

What do you mean by ‘dressy attire’?
Think business casual.

For men, wearing trousers or khakis with a collared shirt is a safe bet. Sports coats and ties are optional. [Probably keep your tie-dye shirt and flip-flops at home.]

For women, think trousers, knee-length skirts with a blouse or collared shirt or a dress. Floor-length evening gowns are probably a bit much, however, if you are feeling the vibe, go for it.

In the end, we want you to be comfortable and aware that this is not a "black-tie event."

What if I have food allergies / dietary restrictions?
Please indicate on your RSVP if you have any food allergies.
