Mike Hess Helps

Community first

Every month our taprooms rally behind one local cause. Drink a pint, drop off a donation, nominate the next one.

November 2026 charity

The Magnolia Project

Project 1:1 · Imperial Beach, CA

A client-choice food pantry in Imperial Beach run by Project 1:1. Client-choice means families pick the food that works for them, like at a market, instead of getting a pre-packed box. That dignity matters, and so does stocking the shelves with foods that are hard to find at most pantries.
