What a powerful night and so cool to see the community rally around our good buddy Michael Daw
Come on out to Creatives Coming Together | Help Daw Bully Cancer where we will keep the donations going, and we will screen the “Who is Michael Daw Documentary” once more.
It’s a beautiful thing to see this community support each other!
WOW.
Last night absolutely blew us away. Over 100 people packed The Handlebar for Help Daw Bully Cancer, and we raised over $3,000 from the show alone (not counting bar sales!). Plus, yesterday $1,000+ was donated to Daw’s GoFundMe, bringing his total to over $12,500.
We sold 165 drawing tickets, moved a ton of shirts (still available online!), and witnessed what this community is truly capable of when we show up for each other.
Winners have been notified - congrats!
THANK YOU to everyone who made this happen:
The Handlebar for hosting and donating the door and a portion of the bar
Liz Dupaw at HatchMark Studio for the incredible shirt design
GCE Designs for donating and producing the shirts
Kitty Get a Job for the awesome Daw-themed sketch
Zach Van Gestel for keeping us laughing with a standup set
Joe Hobbs for donating the amazing glass art piece that was auction off for $500
And our generous local businesses and orgs who donated to our drawing: Jitterbug Beverage Co., Pensacola Little Theatre, Carrie Daniel’s Tattoos, and Ashbrie Cinemas
And to every single person who came, donated, bought shirts, or shared our posts - you made this night what it was.
We’re going back to regular programming for now, but this one will stick with us for a long time.
Together, we’ve got Daw’s back. 💙
