Brad has selected Harbor58 as the non-profit organization to receive our charitable contribution this month.

📅 Date: March 24
⏰ Time: 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM
📍 Location: Inner Compass Brewing Company – Bradenton, FL

Come enjoy a fun evening connecting with fellow professionals while supporting an incredible cause. Proceeds from the event will benefit Harbor58.
