Our stars are unable to shine en masse for a Dining with the Stars event together, but we are hopeful that you will Shine your Light and help with a donation to Communities In Schools (CIS) to continue our critically needed services to thousands of young people who daily face some unimaginable barriers to their health, well-being, and success.
From the beginning of this overwhelming pandemic, Communities In Schools has been there for our kids and continued to provide much needed services for them and their families, quickly identifying new ways to do so.
Now that school is back in session, our kids need the one-on-one relationship and caring adult that CIS provides. Home can be a stressful place for many of our kids, and they need the face to face relationship with their Site Coordinator which is most often their lifeline in tough times. There are so many families needing help, who have never been in a position of asking for help before, the need for services is greater than ever.
Every child deserves hope, a fair chance to succeed in life, and the reason to Shine their light!
We are incredibly grateful to Becky and Pat Wiggins, owners of McAdoo’s and La Cosecha, who created Dining With the Stars seven years ago to champion our mission. Together, let’s show them that they have sparked the flame of supporting youth in our community and succeed in raising much needed funds.
