“Football season is always a big part of the experience at Lefty’s, but we wanted this year’s kickoff to be about more than just watching the games,” Lefty’s Alley and Eats founder and owner, DJ Hill, said via the press release. “It’s an opportunity for our guests, our team and Lefty’s to come together, have some fun and make a meaningful contribution to organizations doing incredible work right here in our communities.”
Representatives from each nonprofit organization are expected to be in attendance at the respective locations to share more about their organization and the work being done in the community.
