About Us

12 Bars of Charity was founded in 2012

12 Bars of Charity was founded in the winter of 2012​ with​ the idea of creating a fun, casual and low entry price point way for charities to involve their supporters. The Bar Crawl was kicked off for the first time in – St. Louis, MO. With a buzz in the air, and people looking to contribute to local charities, there were expectations of a few hundred people attending. With great surprise, 12 Bars of Charity ended up exceeding their goal hitting a total of 1,927 crawlers! From this moment forward, 12BOC organizers put an emphasis on growing the Bar Crawl. 12 Bars of Charity has expanded into 6 cities and plans to continue growing with a mission to keep helping charities around the United States. Keep your eyes open for your city to be added to our list!
