“It’s really just about, as a community getting together and showing support for our neighbors, for family and raising a glass and breaking bread just to show the importance of us sticking together and kind of not letting hate have the last word,” said Claire Everson, Social Media/Marketing manager at Juniper.

Everson says all the restaurants were eager to jump in to show love and give back to community who gives to them.
