They raise money for almost 40 charities

Pause for a Cause is an opportunity to "Party with a Purpose" for the a once-a-year event where local young professionals raise a glass and unite to raise money for nearly 40 important causes in our community. All proceeds will be split among the participating organizations. With more than 900 guests in attendance last year, tickets are going to go fast. Pre-sale online tickets are $15 for two people or $20 per person at the door (raffle tickets sold separately). The best part: 15% of every tab goes directly back to your favorite nonprofits. All proceeds will be split among the participating organizations.

The event is Thursday, October 22 at Fritz and Franz at 60 Merrick Way, Coral Gables.

Tickets may be purchased here.
