Fund Raising Events

A Smile, Some Queso, and a Month of Giving Back

This July of 2025, our friends at California Tortilla are celebrating their 30th anniversary by giving back—and they’ve chosen Happy 2 Be Home as one of their causes!

 
All month long, every Chips & Queso purchase from ANY CalTort location will support our mission of helping families create accessible spaces so their children with special needs can remain at home.
This special fundraiser was inspired by a touching memory from Eric, a longtime CalTort guest, who shared a story about his son, Ethan. Ethan had a heart condition and was nonverbal, using a wheelchair. On one visit to the Royersford location, Ethan watched his dad eat nachos and smirked. Eric turned on his selfie camera—only to discover his chin was covered in cheese sauce! That silly moment sparked one of Ethan’s biggest smiles, a memory Eric still holds close today.
Ethan passed away nearly three years ago, but his joy and spirit live on. Happy 2 Be Home helped renovate Ethan’s bedroom so he could stay safely at home, and now, his story is helping other families too.
 
Here’s how you can help this month:
 
→ Stop by any California Tortilla and order Chips & Queso.
 
→ Share Ethan’s story with friends and family.
 
→ Make a direct donation here.
 
Thank you for being part of a community that makes beautiful stories like this possible.

Every penny we raised supported our mission: Supporting families to create safe, accessible homes for children with complex medical needs.

Hoppy 2 be Home! 

Once again, this year, Stable 12 Brewing Company in Phoenixville, brewed a special craft beer in our honor! We had the release party on Wednesday, November 27, 2024, and we're so happy to have their support.
 
Hoppy 2 be Home was on its 4th year run! It's a one time brew India Pale Ale (IPA) that was sold only at Stable 12 in 4-packs and the production was limited! 
The Beer Tasting Party was awesome. We shared some great food, Hoppy 2 be Home IPAs, and fun. Three lucky people who got in on the raffles  won baskets with Stable 12 gift cards, swag, and beer!

Pictures with Santa!

Santa Claus was too busy to attend the Hoppy Party, but we had a wonderful picture-taking outing with him on November 16th, 2024, and it appears that Santa himself is big fan of Hoppy 2 be Home!
