#SGAD
DAMNS GIVEN, 2022
With winter finally loosening its grip, Surly Gives a Damn (our brewery’s charitable arm) is kicking into high gear. In addition to our year-round indoor projects, we can now get to work on community gardens, environmental cleanup, and more.
As we do that, we wanted to put a ribbon on our 2022 efforts. Our SGAD volunteers never cease to amaze us, giving blood, sorting food, and building entire damn houses. Here’s what they did last year:
