ā¤ļø About the Cause:

The Sub Zero Mission helps provide warmth and essential items to those in need during harsh winter conditions. Your support tonight helps make a real difference.

A fundraiser for Sub Zero Mission is happening tonight in Willoughby, bringing together live music, raffles, and a strong sense of community.

From Sub Zero Mission:
ā€œThe Sub Zero Mission goes where others won’t—into the camps, under bridges, and to the forgotten places where the unsheltered survive. We don’t just deliver warming items—we bring hope, build trust, and walk beside veterans on their journey to stability. Run by veterans and powered by volunteers, we’re more than a charity. We’re a mission—boots on the ground, hearts in the fight, and a promise that no one gets left behind.ā€
