Lockhorn Cider House will be holding a fundraiser, Pints for Peace, on behalf of the Central Asia Institute this January. Pints for Peace will contribute the CAI’s fundraising campaign “Pennies for Peace”.
“The Pennies for Peace program encourages students to learn about their Central Asian counterparts, while raising funds to help them get an education. CAI promotes cross-cultural understanding around the world and campaigns to keep education in the public eye at home and abroad.” – Central Asia Institute
Community members are encouraged to bring in a penny jar in exchange for a pint of cider throughout the month. Kids can exchange their pennies for a non-alcoholic cider as well. The contents of each penny jar will be poured into a six-gallon glass carboy, and donated to the Pennies for Peace program at the end of the month. The Lockhorn Cider House will match the community’s contributions up to $1000.00.
