We have been proud partners since day one with our friends/family at @woolgrowerskc in Bakersfield, California.

We hope you’ll visit and enjoy this wonderful Basque establishment (cocktail lounge and restaurant) with your own family and friends — they are a pillar of the Kern County community, and continue to invest and give back to our area needs. 💫

Special thanks to some of our colleagues from the medical social services team and the @ucsfchildrens foundation (business development and philanthropy team) who met with Board President @brianmendiburu today — for our annual meeting and tour of the San Francisco expansion there with partners in Oakland & San Francisco with @ucsfchildrens

Since 2000, @mendiburumagic has partnered with California hospital and medical partners to provide necessary support for children and families who need to travel for medical care and treatment (from Kern County).
