A big thank you to Plan B Simsbury for supporting Connecticut Children’s Medical Center with the Cans 4 Kids event which was held on June 17, 2017. Together, with donations from the community, Plan B raised $5,500 for Connecticut Children’s. Plan B Simsbury General Manager, Nancy Crandall and Manager Maryann Hubbard presented the check, with help from Nancy’s 2-year-old daughter, Isla. Plan B Simsbury chose Connecticut Children’s because one of their bartenders had spent a significant amount of time at Connecticut Children’s with his first born. He had such a wonderful experience and everyone was excited to be able to do something to give back.
Plan B Simsbury has been hosting Cans 4 Kids for four years and has raised more than $20,000 to date with help from the community. All donated cans of beer were $4.00 and all proceeds support patient care at Connecticut Children’s Medical Center. It was a perfect family friendly day with games, raffle prizes, food and fun! A big thank you to co-sponsor LAZ Parking and the following partners for pitching in to help raise funds:
- Hartford Distributors (HDI)
- Rogo Distributors
- Brescome Barton Craft Beer
- Northeast Beverage Corp of CT
- Craft Beer Guild Distributing of Connecticut
- Sarene Craft Beer Distributors
Nancy Crandall said, “We really love this event, it brings the community and families together. Surrounding businesses contribute raffle prizes and gift cards and who could forget our local distributors who give so much with their product donations. I truly believe we are making a difference and we are having so much fun in the process!”
