A charming performance by Debbie Cavitt and the Leschi Elementary School Choir inspired guests to give from their hearts.
We met our fundraising goal, thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, donors and table captains. More than 40 people joined our 20th Anniversary Club, pledging a $20/month donation ($240/annually). To date, we’ve received more than $100,000 in support!
