Our spring fundraiser, Fans for Philanthropy was a great success. From the inspirational program led by David Morris with QB Country and Jake Coker, Jack West and Cephus Johnson – to our fabulous emcees, Kelly Jones and Darwin Singleton with Local 15 TV, to great food, live music, sports-themed table decor and tablescapes and the many donations for our silent auction – our program was a hit (or should I say Touchdown!)
A big thank you to our sponsors, community and media partners, friends and members that helped to make this fundraiser a success in both awareness of our chapter and also in funds raised to support our philanthropic programs in the community.
From Kelly Jones:
“Shannon!!
