We Love Our Cardinal Community!

Thanks to everyone who came to our Cardinals Night Our party, bid on auction items, or donated your time or treasure! With your support, we smashed our $20,000 goal and had a blast doing it.

If you still want to help, we're continuing to accept direct donations —will you be the one to push our fundraising total over $24,000? Whether it’s $10 or $500, 100% of your gift goes straight toward funding after-school programming, academic enrichment, and essential resources for our Cardinals.

Thanks To Our Sponsors

We deeply appreciate the local organizations and businesses that have made significant investments in our community. Interested in joining them for our next event? Email us for more information.
