Continuing the annual tradition, Republic FC is once again bringing together fans for a night of service and soccer. This Saturday, the club is teaming up with Nation’s Finest – Sacramento to support military veterans and their families. The event doubles as an official watch party for Republic FC’s road game against defending league champion Pittsburgh Riverhounds.
Beginning at 3:30 p.m., community members can gather at At Ease Brewing (1825 I St), where volunteers will create friendship bracelets to donate to veterans living in one of the residential programs provided by Nation’s Finest. The bracelets serve as a special moment to bring positivity and joy to someone’s day. The non-profit organization provides a wide range of residential services for veterans, including transitional and permanent housing.
Fans attending will receive tickets to an upcoming Republic FC match, and will be entered to win a variety of raffle prizes.
At 4:00 p.m., the focus shifts to the pitch as Republic FC takes on the Pittsburgh Riverhounds. The brewery will be showing the game live, making this the perfect opportunity to give back and cheer on the boys in Old Glory Red alongside fellow supporters.
