Every December, the Hermosa Beach community comes together for a festive tradition with heart. Our signature event — the 12 Bars of Christmas Pub Crawl & Charity Toy Drive — blends holiday fun with meaningful impact.
Dress in your holiday best, visit your favorite local bars, and bring a new, unwrapped toy to help brighten the season for families in need.
🎄 Next Event: December 12–13, 2025
🎁 Goal: 750+ toys donated to local children
🎯 Our Mission
The 12 Bars Hermosa Beach Charity Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to building community and giving back through festive, purpose-driven events. What started as a casual pub crawl among friends has grown into a beloved holiday tradition that supports hundreds of local families each year.
💡 Why We Do It
We believe that joy, connection, and compassion belong together. By combining celebration with charity, we help strengthen our Hermosa Beach community while supporting families in need—through our annual toy drive in partnership with the Hermosa Beach Police Department.
