Attend benefits Bro-Am Benefit Party JUNE 15 | PRIVATE NORTH COUNTY VENUE The 19th annual Bro-Am Benefit Party is back with an outdoor concert featuring Grammy Award-winning rock act Switchfoot. At the festive fundraiser, guests will enjoy silent and live auctions, and sample signature dishes and sips from a stellar lineup of culinary partners including Beeside Balcony, Casa de Bandini, Ranch 45, Buona Forchetta, and many more. VIP ticket opportunities also include a meet and greet with Switchfoot. The Switchfoot Bro-Am Foundation is dedicated to giving back to the San Diego community by building awareness and providing grants to local nonprofit organizations that provide services to at-risk and disadvantaged youth, with a special focus on programs related to music, art, and surfing. The members of Switchfoot dreamed up the event in 2005 as a way to make a difference by merging their passions — music, surfing, and giving back. Proceeds from this year's Bro-Am will support local youth initiatives of the foundation's selected beneficiaries: A Step Beyond, Challenged Athletes Foundation, Feeding San Diego, Monarch School, and Save The Music Foundation. Event sponsors include Viasat, BMW of Carlsbad, Ting Internet, Kaiser Permanente, and Splat. broam.org Baja Bash JUNE 17 | PRIVATE SOLANA BEACH ESTATE International conservation group Wildcoast will host the Baja Bash to raise awareness and funds for its ocean conservation and climate action programs.
