St. Joseph the Worker will host its inaugural Be the Impact sunset happy hour event to support the Phoenix nonprofit's mission to assist homeless, low-income, and other disadvantaged residents in their efforts to become self-sufficient through quality employment.

The fundraiser takes place from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 2 atop The Grove, 4300 E. Camelback Road in Phoenix.

Admission is $50, with proceeds directly supporting the cause.

Founded in 1988, St. Joseph The Worker offers free employment services through its Employment Without Barriers Program and transitional housing through its Workforce Villages program. In fiscal year 2022, SJW provided its services to more than 10,000 residents, a 37% increase over the previous year and the largest number of clients served in its 35-year history.

The organization extends its reach to clients residing in more than 50 ZIP codes across the Valley through its three locations.

During the event on Nov. 2, attendees will have the opportunity to connect with community leaders and advocates, enjoy a selection of fine beers and wines, indulge in delectable small plates and take in the sunset views. For $100, guests can also partake in three swings on a golf simulator for a chance to win Taylor Made Stealth Irons, a Callaway Paradym driver, an Apple Watch or a two-night resort stay at the Arizona Grand Resort and Spa.

St. Joseph The Worker is looking to raise $150,000. The event will include two SJW founding members who will match all donations up to $25,000, effectively tripling the impact of every donation made that evening.
