The Brandon Foundation is gearing up for our 2nd dinner
and auction at YOLO Event Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana on Friday,
May 20th. The night will be an "Evening to Empower" our
current and future students. The
goal of the event is to raise $60,000 ($40,000
for our College Scholarship Fund and $20,000 for our program funding).
Because of the generosity of our supporters, The Brandon
Foundation's students have shown tremendous improvements, both academically and
socially. We are so proud of our scholars;
almost half of our students made Honor Roll this past academic
quarter. Our students have also
been learning the importance of giving back to the community. One of our
favorite community service projects this year was making Valentines with, and
for, the patients at the Lutheran’s Children’s Hospital. We met some amazing
children who were so happy to have a break from their hospital beds. As we
left, we passed out Valentines to people
waiting in the lobby. The smiles and happiness were priceless!
Would
you consider helping our efforts? You can help make our event successful by
donating an item, gift certificate, a service, or a monetary gift. Your tax-deductible
contribution will make it possible for the children of The Brandon Foundation
to continue to grow, pursue opportunities, and develop as future community leaders. We anticipate having over 200 attendees, and
all business donors will be featured in our program. Any donation in support of The Brandon Foundation will be
well-received; no gift is too small.
Donations may be mailed to:
