A minimal $10 cover gets you in to one of the hottest parties on the waterfront. Enjoy $3.50 Dos Equis, $3.00 Tecate, and half-price appetizers from 8:00pm – midnight.

District Trust Charities (DTC) was formed in 2005 by a group a young DC professionals who wanted to be proactive in raising funds for those in need. Most of the charity’s board members have worked on the Hill or in the Administration, but there is no ideological bent to their fundraising efforts.

Everyone involved shares a commitment to supporting District related entities that provide hope to those with various needs and challenges. We are an equal opportunity charity and each of our events will benefit a new cause. Previous events have supported the Lombardi Cancer Research Center at Georgetown Hospital, the Washington Scholarship Fund, My Sister’s Place and Cure Autism Now. The $10 cover from this event will benefit Horton’s Kids
