KELLS Boys & Girls Aid:
This year the Cypress Branch is celebrating its 35th anniversary of making a difference in championing Boys and Girls Aid by holding THE DINNER on Saturday, March 15 here in Charbonneau in the Clubhouse. Tickets are $ 65 per person or $ 500 for a table of eight people. You can get tickets by going to www. boysandgirlsaid. ejoinme. org.
An interesting fact is that Boys & Girls Aid is celebrating 140 years of service. They have placed more than 100,000 children with permanent families through adoption. Each year, they serve close to 250 children each year to find their forever families. This group has done so much in breaking the cycle of foster care and preventing youth homelessness. I know that if you attend this wonderful event, you will leave feeling really good.
The evening starts with checking out all the tables filled with a wide variety of wonderful Silent Auction items, and if you should be the high bidder, it will be yours, so bid high and help the kids. Then you will be seated at your table and served a wonderful dinner, catered by It’ s Party Time that will consist of prime rib, shrimp on the half shell, mashed potatoes and garlic green beans, and I’ m sure there will be a tasty dessert too. Then you’ ll have the pleasure of hearing from a young person who will share their moving story about their adoption through Boys & Girls Aid. In the past when I’ ve been there, they’ ve also had a paddle raise where you can make a donation when different amounts of dollar categories are mentioned.
All the proceeds from the event go directly to supporting the children and youth who benefit from Boys & Girls Aid’ s programs. Many people have worked very hard through the year to make this evening a success; please come, enjoy and celebrate the Cypress Branch and the young people who have been helped by Boys & Girls Aid.
