NWA Gives – Thursday, April 9

Home Brew – Saturday, April 18
Join us for our 5th Annual Home Brew Beer Tasting & Competition, happening Saturday, April 18, from 12–4 PM at Bentonville Brewing Co. Local brewers from across Northwest Arkansas bring home-brewed beers and ciders to compete for Best Brew, and you get to taste them all!
It’s one of our favorite community events of the year, and all for a meaningful cause. Grab your friends, bring the family, and raise a glass with us!
Hope in One – Thursday, June 4
Whether you’re a serious putter or just in it for the golf claps, Hope in One is a summer event you won’t want to miss. Join us for 36 holes of mini golf, food and drinks, music, and more.
This family-friendly fundraiser brings our community together to support survivors of domestic violence while highlighting the incredible work of local nonprofits across Northwest Arkansas. Walk the course, meet nonprofit partners, and enjoy a fun, laid-back evening celebrating collaboration and compassion. Grab your family, friends, coworkers, or putt-putt dream team and help us swing for something bigger than a trophy – HOPE.
Fresh Start – Saturday, September 19
Celebrate 40 years of Northwest Arkansas Women’s Shelter at “the most fun fundraiser in Northwest Arkansas.” Wager the night away at the classic casino tables like poker, blackjack, roulette, and craps with your included gaming chips. Also enjoy complimentary wine and beer, heavy hors d’oeuvres, a jam-packed silent auction, and more.
This year promises to be our best yet at The Compton, a stunning new hotel in downtown Bentonville. When the gaming wraps up, dance the night away in style at our brand-new after party from 9 PM to midnight. It’s sure to be an amazing evening!
