Brighter Futures Fundraiser
Support Our Sponsors
On May 2 at the Lost Druid Brewery in Avondale Estates at 6:00 pm, the Decatur Rotary Club holds its annual gala fundraiser. Decatur Rotary’s mission is to support local non-profit organizations that provide Youth-At-Risk and Literacy programs. The Fundraiser event is a great evening of live music, craft cocktails, and fun.
Literacy: Our goal is to strengthen the capacity of communities to support basic education and literacy, reduce gender disparity in education, and increase adult literacy.
Youth-At-Risk: Rotary supports local non-profits that help young people who are vulnerable for problem behaviors such as substance abuse, school failure, and juvenile delinquency, along with mental health disorders, such as depression and anxiety.
Rotary’s mission is to help these organizations in our community. Those selected for these awards truly understand and actively embrace the concept of improving literacy or supporting Youth-At-Risk within their individual missions to help uplift the people they serve.
AUCTION
Support Our Auction: Sponsors may also want to contribute to the Fundraise through the Buy, Browse and Bid Auction by giving an item that guests can purchase or bid on through the event website.
