My friend and client Maija owns and operates Boozefish Wine Bar in Westport–a casual, friendly, welcoming bar (also serving food) at 1511 Westport Road.  Maija also makes a point to give back to the community that supports her small business–by collecting donations for two community service organizations in KC.

Neighbor 2Neighbor provides meals and other daily needs to the homeless and nearly homeless in the Westport area.  Boxed and canned food donations are always needed.

Hope House provides shelter and other services for victims of domestic violence.  They can utilize used cell phones for those women who use their services.

If you get a new cell phone as a gift–or plan on giving one–don’t just toss the old one in the trash.  It’s easy to recycle through Hope House!  And at the next grocery store run–spend an extra $10 or so to pick up some food for Neighbor2Neighbor.  You can drop off the old cellphones and food items at Boozefish during November and December any Tuesday through Saturday evening.  Maija will get your donation to the charities.

So many people  get together over the holidays to have a drink, celebrate the season, catch up with old friends.  Boozefish is a great bar for these occasions, offering a large wine selection, tasty food and a comfortable atmosphere where you can have a conversation without shouting!  Think of Boozefish when looking for a place to meet for the evening–and bring in your used cellphones and  some food items to help those less fortunate.
