Children Across America is seeking volunteers to make our 2019 Gala a smashing success! Planning, setup, helping with auction, arranging seating, processing payments from auction, directing parking and general help for our 2019 Children Across America Gala - A Midsummer's Night For Knowledge. This business professional attire Gala will be held at the beautiful Lake Pearl in Wrentham on Saturday July 20th from 7-11 PM. Live music, fabulous buffet, raffles, live and silent auctions. We are looking to have a fun time and raise some money to help kids at the same time. All volunteers will be able to take part in the awesome buffet, desserts and non alcoholic refreshments.
We are a 100% volunteer organization that provides all of our educational and preventative health care services free of charge to underserved families. We are completely dependent on donations and fundraisers and this is the biggest of the year for us. We plan on having 100 kids in this summers program and that takes a lot of money. Our cost is $10 per child per day and that includes lunch. But the feeling you get when you see a child realize that they are smart is priceless.
Accessible health care and a good education can change a child's world. You can be part of that change. Please consider lending your skills to help America's children. Everyone in our organization are volunteers, including our full time staff. We will never use donations to be used for anything but helping children.
