ABOUT ORANGE DRUMSTICKS

Orange Drumsticks originated in 2021 with a collective goal between Quail Distributing and Throne Brewing Company to give back to a community that helps the visually impaired and their families cope with vision loss and blindness. Orange Drumsticks is a 4-way collaboration this year, including O.H.S.O. Brewery, Throne Brewing Company, Quail Distributing, and Foundation for Blind Children.

The Foundation for Blind Children is the beneficiary of this annual charitable project. The idea was brought about by Quail Distributing’s own, Shawn Hillman, who has an 8-year-old son that was born blind. FBC has been a huge support vehicle for Shawn, his son Gavin, and their family throughout the years. A large percentage of the proceeds from the sale of Orange Drumsticks will be donated to FBC. The goal is to help raise money to support an extremely important organization that helps many Arizona families. The Foundation for Blind Children not only serves blind and visually impaired children, they also serve the blind and visually impaired of all ages, and currently up to age 102. As the only agency of its kind in Arizona, FBC is an essential resource to families and children with blindness to low vision and it is our mission to help them succeed.
