FALLBROOK – The Boys & Girls Clubs of North County’s annual auction and dinner gala was held Saturday, April 27 at Pala Casino Spa & Resort, with presenting sponsor the Donegan-Burns Foundation. The gala was attended by 225 guests from the Fallbrook community.
The New York New York-themed event raised over $100,000 in support of club’s programs and its 1,500 youth members.
Guests were treated to a silent and live auction, along with delicious food and fabulous entertainment.
A live “statue” of liberty was available for pictures and the band Atomic Groove played during the after-party.
Exciting items, such as VIP tickets to the New York Yankees, a round of golf with rock legend Alice Cooper and the opportunity for a person to make their own wine, were auctioned off to benefit the Boys & Girls Club.
“We are so appreciative of such a supportive community,” said Allison Barclay, chief professional officer of the Boys & Girls Club. “It was amazing to see all of the sponsors and community members willing to contribute to improve the lives of the children in Fallbrook. The Boys & Girls Club is a vital program and we certainly could not provide life-changing programs to our members without such dedicated donors.”
The mission of Boys & Girls Clubs of North County is “to inspire and enable all young people, especially those that need us most, to realize their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens.” For more information on the club, visit http://www.bgcnorthcounty.org.
