Collab Spotlight: “Have a Beer in NYC” in Support of Reproductive Rights
The “Have A Beer In NYC” reproductive rights collaboration is intended to raise awareness and keep the conversation going about reproductive rights within the NYC Beer Community, show solidarity and support for everyone’s reproductive rights and raise a little money for the Beer is for Everyone emergency health fund.

About the Beer is for Everyone Emergency Health Fund
We are asking breweries and beyond to participate in justice via a collaborative beer or freestyle participation effort dedicated to raising funds for the BIFE Emergency Health Fund. This Fund provides emergency assistance to individuals in the craft beer and greater alcohol industry seeking abortion care in states that are soon to be impacted by “Trigger Law” and others that unjustly restrict the basic human right for a person to choose what happens to their own body.
