The partner charities organized the fundraiser with the support of Cooper Levenson law firm, Little Water Distillery, Hidden Sands Brewing Company, Pinelands Brewing Company, Three 3's Brewing and 11 th Floor Creative Group. The virtual tasting gave participants the opportunity to sample unique spirits and craft beers at home while helping families who are food insecure.
