Ability Beyond Hosts 7th Annual Families Rock Fundraising Event
Irish pub Molly Darcy's offers great food and live music on October 25 in Danbury for Charity

Rock the night away for a good cause and enjoy delicious pub grub at the 7th Annual “Families Rock” event to benefit Ability Beyond. Molly Darcy’s Irish Pub and Restaurant will host the fundraiser on Friday, Oct 25, 2019 from 6:30-9:30 pm. Ability Beyond is a leading nonprofit providing services and programs to nearly 3,000 individuals with disabilities in Connecticut and New York.
This annual event was created by Ability Beyond’s Family Committee, a group of family members with loved ones being supported by the organization. Two popular bands are lending their musical talents to the event - acoustic guitar group the Willie Portera Trio from Newtown and 60s/70s Rock & Roll band The Tyger Dynasty. Both bands include fathers of children who receive services from Ability Beyond.
Molly Darcy’s is located at 39 Mill Rd, Danbury and is generously donating 15% of all dinner receipts during the 3-hour charity event to Ability Beyond. Admission is free, there will be raffles and it is open to the public.
