The Emerging Leaders, a young professionals group supporting Arkansas’s oldest nonprofit, Centers for Youth and Families, has adapted its annual BrunchFest to BrunchFest Passes. Valid from May 22 through August 31, the passes contain coupons to more than 30 local eateries and can be purchased here. The basic BrunchFest Pass is $45, the Sips Package for $55 includes a commemorative cup, and the VIP Package includes a shirt and gift bag for $75. They can be picked up from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. on Saturday, May 22, at Heifer Village. The first 100 pass holders (21+) will be offered a free mimosa. Food trucks will be present and music will be provided by B98.5. If you purchase a pass but cannot attend, they can be mailed to you.

“We are thrilled to provide this opportunity that allows donors to support The Centers and area restaurants in a safe manner,” said event Co-Chair Bailey Moll in a press release. “Purchasing a pass will help The Centers continue its mission to provide specialized prevention, intervention, and treatment services that promote emotional and social wellness for children and families in Arkansas.”

“This past year has been challenging on everyone,” said BrunchFest Co-Chair Joyti LaI. “Finding a way to support the mission of The Centers that also helps drive business to our generation restaurant partners was key to making this plan a
success. Together, we have found a way to support both, and I am truly thankful for all the donors, restaurants, volunteers and Centers’ staff who made all of this come together under challenging circumstances.”
