Here’s a dose of wholesome news to celebrate our newfound post-lockdown freedom: local Miami businesses are banding together this week to support an epic charity trivia night by the Pyjama Foundation, raising money for Australian kids in foster care. The movie night-themed event will take place at Precinct Brewing on Thursday the 12th of August from 7 pm.
Various local businesses have rallied behind the event, hosted by Precinct Brewing and sponsored by Hard Fizz, contributing incredible prizes for the trivia-goers to win on the night.
The Pyjama Foundation gives children in foster care the opportunity to change the direction of their lives through learning, life skills, and confidence. Volunteers called ‘Pyjama Angels’ are screened, trained and then matched with a child in care to spend time with them once a week, focusing on learning-based activities.
Event organiser Amy Greig has been a Pyjama Angel for three years, seeing the difference the programme has made in the life of the little girl she supports.
“As I see her grow week on week, and the months and now years go by, it’s crazy to think how far we’ve come and I’m excited to see what the future holds. Being a Pyjama Angel is by far the best way I spend my time, in every way,” Greig said.
She was inspired to organise the event to help raise some much-needed funds as charity donations have dropped during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Scott Imlach from Precinct Brewing said the business couldn’t be happier to support the Pyjama Foundation: “We’re so excited to be hosting trivia with our regular hosts, Tipsy Trivia. The night is to be full of fun and laughs over some Fizz and pizza.”
Tickets are available to purchase for the general public to join in on the fun, and don’t forget to dress up in your favourite PJs because there is a prize for the best-dressed team! The $20 ticket includes a glass of Fizz on arrival, so round up your mates and come down for a fun night that supports the community and a great cause.
Make sure to book your tickets in advance because they’re bound to sell out!
