Third Thursdays

The mission of the Third Thursdays Network is to provide Dallas-area young professionals with an outlet to give back to the community in a social atmosphere. The primary goal of the organization is to raise contributions for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

The Third Thursdays Network hosts a happy hour for young professionals on the third Thursday of each month. Past event venues have included Jeroboam, Salve and Palomino. A $10 donation at the door benefits the life-saving research at St. Jude. For more information or questions visit www.thirdthursday.net or call 972-594-8080.
