A group of like-minded restaurant and bar owners in Houston recognized a need for a public voice for independent businesses in the industry. In 2011, they founded OKRA, the Organized Kollaboration on Restaurant Affairs, to pursue community and charitable initiatives in the city.
At OKRA Charity Saloon, the concept is simple. For each drink purchased, guests receive one vote that they may cast that night for one of four charities selected by OKRA’s members. The charities are all locally based. The charity with the most votes at the end of the month receives the next month’s proceeds. Interested charities, please submit an application.
Our current giving total is $1,303,630.07.
This month, we are raising money for RAICES Texas.
RAICES Texas defends the rights of immigrants and refugees, empowers individuals, families, and communities, and advocates for liberty and justice. We envision a society where all people have the right to migrate and human rights are guaranteed.
We are located at 924 Congress St. Houston Texas 77002.
