Common Ground Montgomery Christmas Store promo. Started in 2007, the CGM Christmas Store is a way for families in the Washington Park community to afford buying toys for their children. It also is a way to affirm the dignity of adults in our community as they purchase toys at an affordable rate instead of us giving them away for free. And, the Christmas store is used to help empower the high school students in the Leadership Development Program by giving them an opportunity to invest back into their community through working and serving.

Common Bond Brewers and Leadership Montgomery are teaming-up for December's "Drink for a Cause" pub night to benefit Common Ground Montgomery’s Christmas Store.

Here’s how you can help:

On Wednesday, December 5, from 5-8 p.m. —

• come to the taproom and enjoy Common Bond beer with friends, knowing that a percentage of all sales will go to Common Ground Montgomery’s Christmas Store;

• bring a new toy or game with you that night (see “Donate Toys!” instructions midway down the page);

• bring a gift card (Walmart or Target), prepaid Visa/MasterCard card, cash, check payable to Leadership Montgomery (with Memo Line: For Common Ground).

Can’t make it December 5? No problem. We’ll be collecting donations of toys and games only in the taproom through Friday, December 14.

Whether you come out December 5 or bring a toy or game to the taproom before December 14, know that your support will bring Christmas joy to families around Montgomery!
