Fundraising Update
An amazing evening was enjoyed by all who attended our Circle of Care – Reach for the Stars Gala on September 13!
We launched our capital fundraising campaign for the modernization of our elevators. We are still calculating the results and will share the evening’s success soon.
We are very grateful to all who attended, donated, sponsored, and volunteered their time to making the evening such a success! It was just the start as work towards our goal!
