-GIVING BACK-
December 22, 2021
Thank you for being a part of our group. We have made a strong effort for the proceeds from events, barrel picks, and merchandise to go to causes that positively impact our community and those within it. Because of your involvement in 2021, you were able to help bless a family in a monumental and impactful way.
Through a member that is involved in our group, we were able to find a family in need through a school in South Oak Cliff that has had a roller coaster of a year. The family went through some unthinkable tragedies in 2021. When we found this family in need, we were told of three children in need of basics to bring cheer to their Christmas season. After picking up the gifts on their wish list, several group members went to their house to delivery the gifts. The reality of their tragedies began to set in upon seeing and meeting the family. There was a small Christmas tree in the corner of the living room that did not have a single gift under it. There was a bed in the very small kitchen. The father of four lost his life to COVID in November, leaving the mother behind to parent alone. The reality of those circumstances, standing in her living room with a flood of empathy, came to life for us for just a brief moment. Because of this group, we are so blessed to be able to have impact on her life and the life of her four children. Because of you, we were able to place Christmas presents under her tree with all the items on her list checked off, along with quite a bit more. Her gratitude and her feeling of indebtedness to our group was so genuine and gracious. She blessed us with a revived perspective more than she will ever know. She is fighting every day to do everything she can to keep her kids fed, under a roof, and in school. Your acts of giving unequivocally changed her and her kids perspective and circumstances, giving them some profound hope and thankfulness this holiday season.Â

Raised over $8,000 for 8 DFW Families!
Our 2022 giving back efforts made a huge impact on several families in need in South Dallas. In partnership with Parscale Group, Builders Bourbon Society partnered with a low income school in South Dallas and had the administration team find and gather information for 8 different families in need. The club pooled together a collection of bottles to do an online raffle. Through the generosity of our awesome members, we gathered over 20 bottles and raised over $8,000 for these families. Some of them had no presents under their trees, some of them were struggling to get food on their tables. This group was able to impact their lives and the lives of their kids by getting every item that was on their Christmas lists. Ranging from toothbrushes and hair combs all the way to ipads and airpods, the group was able to bless their lives and make an impact on the 2022 holiday season. Their gratitude and thankfulness was unforgettable. They were so incredibly humbled by our group being able to get them all the Christmas items they could ever want and put on their lists. It was a great experience, and looking forward to what this group can do to make 2023 an even bigger impact to those in need!
