Buchheit Foundation’s 2025 Summer Charity Event
Sunshine, snacks, and so many glizzies! Glizzy Fest ’25 brought the fun—and the impact—poolside this summer as we came together to raise money, collect donations, and celebrate the power of community.
From hot dog contests to raffle tables and pool floats to the iconic Wienermobile making an appearance, this event was one for the books. And thanks to everyone who came out, we made a real difference.
Here’s What We Raised Together:
- $5,019 in monetary donations
- 1,213 food items
- 333 personal hygiene items
These generous contributions went directly to support:
- EMPOWER North County
- SHARE Pregnancy & Infant Loss
- Trinity Food Pantry
- Waymakers Food Pantry
- IAM Local 777 Scholarship Fund
