Dear Members, Friends and Supporters,
With your support, we did it! ACC's Celebrate the Children Annual Fundraiser was a huge success! Right now, our gross projection is close to $175,000 raised for Advocacy and Caring for Children! As we wrap-up our campaign, we are grateful how our community continues to give. The evening was magical with the good weather, lakeside patio, great food, and everyone mingling and enjoying a wonderful evening. The generosity of family, friends, and supporters will provide ACC grant funding for programs that serve vulnerable children and families this spring & fall 2024.
We strive to raise awareness of our organization, reaching potential new members by sharing our passion for the programs we support. We are glad you joined us, and we want to keep you engaged in our journey. If you would still like to donate to Celebrate the Children, you can click the button below!
