🎄✨ Join Beyond Brink / WEcovery at Kiwanis Holiday Lights 2026! ✨🎄

The holiday season is all about community, connection, and giving back — and we would LOVE for you to be part of it! ❤️

Beyond Brink / WEcovery is excited to participate in Kiwanis Holiday Lights, and we’re inviting our friends, families, supporters, and community members to join us in spreading holiday cheer while making a difference!

🌟 We have several volunteer opportunities available:

🎄 November 15: Holiday Lights Setup (9 AM–12 PM)

🎄 November 21–26: Help decorate Beyond Brink’s holiday tree!

✨ December 27: Volunteer at Kiwanis Holiday Lights (4:30 PM–approximately 9 PM)

🎁 January 2: Holiday Lights Teardown (9 AM–12 PM)

❤️ Additional concession volunteer opportunities may also be available!

Whether you can give a few hours, bring your family or friends, or join us for multiple events, we’d love to have you!

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 IMPORTANT VOLUNTEER AGE GUIDELINES:

We love seeing families give back together! However, Kiwanis Holiday Lights has specific age requirements to keep everyone safe:

❤️ Under age 12: Unfortunately, children under 12 are not permitted to volunteer or participate in volunteer activities.

❤️ Ages 12–15: Welcome to volunteer during daytime shifts only and must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

❤️ Ages 16 and older: Welcome to volunteer!

⭐ Please note: Volunteers under age 16 do not count toward Beyond Brink’s required volunteer hours, but their help and participation are still appreciated!

At Beyond Brink, we believe recovery is about more than overcoming challenges. It’s about building connections, finding purpose, giving back, and creating a community where everyone belongs. 💜

You don’t have to be part of our organization to volunteer — EVERYONE who meets the age requirements is welcome!
