This Saturday, Revitalize Dublin’s annual fundraiser returns with guests getting to enjoy terrific entertainment from One Headlight while supporting the nonprofit.

Revitalize Dublin (RD) is a local nonprofit dedicated to beautification, community development and economic growth. Its 3rd annual fundraiser will be held at The Majestic on Grafton, also known as Shenanigans Irish Pub, near downtown Dublin.

Doors open at 5 p.m. with live music beginning at 7 p.m.

This year’s fundraiser promises an evening of live music, great food, and community spirit. Guests will enjoy a high-energy performance by One Headlight Band, known for bringing the best of the ’90s to life. Bar Lee BBQ will be onsite serving delicious BBQ and a limited menu and alcohol will be available at the Pub.

Attendees won’t want to miss the crowd-favorite Mr. Legs contest, adding even more fun to the evening.

The event is free and open to the public, giving the community a chance to come together in support of Revitalize Dublin’s mission.

In addition to live entertainment, the evening will feature a silent auction with a variety of great items available.

Just a few of the auction items available for purchase include a wine basket from Lucky Vines, a $250 gift certificate for legal services from King Law, a really cool s’mores set from Texas Bank, items from Newton’s Saddlerack, Texans Football, Waste Connections and much more.

Proceeds from the fundraiser will directly support the organization’s ongoing efforts, including:

•A homeowner matching grant program for exterior improvements such as windows, fencing, porches, and paint

•C o m m u n i t y beautification projects, including citywide cleanup support and other improvement efforts

•Local economic support through partnerships with area suppliers and contractors This past year, Revitalize Dublin helped 11 homeowners and distributed nearly $5,000 through its matching grant program. The organization also supported community cleanups with roll-off dumpsters and enhanced downtown with “Welcome to Dublin” banners.

“Our goal is simple — to improve Dublin by assisting homeowners with costs associated with home repairs, to keep beautiful, vibrant and growing,” said Lori Beggs, Board Vice President “This fundraiser allows us to continue investing directly back into our community.”

Community members, businesses, and organizations are encouraged to attend, participate in the silent auction, or contribute through donations.
