30 years ago, a group of individuals from various sectors of child welfare came together because they knew it was time to do something different. Out of their dedication to providing more than base-level services for youth in care came the collaborative effort now known as the Multi-Agency Alliance for Children (MAAC). For three decades, MAAC and its partners have raised the bar and never stopped innovating to pursue positive outcomes for youth in foster care.

This year, MAAC is excited and privileged to host our 12th annual A Starry Night fundraiser!

The last year presented many challenges and obstacles that directly affected the youth and families we serve as well as many of the agencies and organizations that support them. This night is sure to be a great reminder of the positive impact of our work and dedication to youth in care, and inspire us to keep moving forward.

We hope you join us as we recognize our Shining Stars and raise funds and awareness for Georgia's youth and families. We look forward to this celebration every year, but perhaps even more so in 2026.

We Are So Grateful for the Generous Support of Our Sponsors!
