Brian Carroll meant so much to a lot of us, and Jenni and I have been thinking for awhile now of holding an event to remember his life and honor his memory. We thought what better way to do that than through food, drinks, and giving back to others!

We’ll host a lasagna and beer night at a Los Angeles location in May. More details on the event coming soon.

Our goal is to raise $1,000 for Special Olympics San Diego County. This charity was near and dear to Brian. Volunteering at the Games is where Jenni and I bonded with him, and it will always have a special place in our hearts. We’ll never forget seeing Brian run around the Games, laying in the dirt & grass to grab the perfect shot and losing track of time shooting interviews with countless athletes. His warm-hearted nature shined through as he cheered on the athletes and made friends that he’d reconnect with at each years events. You could see how much they loved his energy often running up to him to give high-fives and to catch up.

100% of the proceeds will go to Special Olympics as Jenni and I are covering all expenses.

Jenni and I will also matching up to $350 of total donations. If you donate $35 for what would have been Brian’s 35th birthday, you’ll help provide a uniform and running sneakers for an athlete.

Please join us remembering the life of one of our best friends and an inspiring person by making a donation to Special Olympics and attending his celebration dinner.

This fundraiser is being organized by Brian and Jenni Szczerbinski.
