Eagles Wings/Break the Cycle ‘Dinner for Kids’ exceeded expectations! 240 guests attended the dinner with very generous hearts for children who live in extreme poverty.
While organizers of the event were hopeful of a small profit, many of the guests made sure their ‘limited’ faith (of at least one organizer – the blog editor) was challenged and gave above and beyond. Around $15, 000 was raised mostly through the charity auction in which one traditional African painting brought in Ndola, Zambia went for $2300!
A huge thank you to all involved, from those who donated time, goods and to all the organizing team who made this dinner a success. It is also great to know that all of the funds raised are for grassroots programs and projects of Eagles Wings. Children will directly benefit.
