Drink to Help Boston Victims at Pasadena Restaurants and Bars Saturday

The Boston Marathon bombings may have taken place across the country, but the images were seen everywhere and many are wondering how to help.

See more on how many Pasadena runners were at the Boston Marathon here.

It doesn’t get much easier than drinking and this Saturday you can do it for Boston.

Restaurants and bars across the Los Angeles area, including Pasadena, are participating in LADrinks2Boston, a recently organized effort where a portion--or in some cases all--of a business’s food or drink proceeds or fundraising activities Saturday will go to a fund set up by the City of Boston for those affected by the Boston Marathon attack.

See more about the fund here: www.onefundboston.org.

Businesses can create whichever fundraising activity they want and LADrinks2Boston will feature it on their facebook page. Check the facebook page here for participants and updates.
