Colette’s Children’s Home will be hosting its first annual Every Child Deserves a Chance Benefit Fundraiser on March 29, 2010 from 3:00 p.m. from 6:00 p.m. at Tsunami Sushi in Huntington Beach, CA.  We are expecting over 300 guests.  The afternoon will feature sushi and appetizers, networking, raffle prizes, and a $500 cash drawing.  All the funds raised will be used to provide shelter for the homeless women and children we serve in the 8 shelters owned and operated by Colette’s Children’s Home.

Stuart Thomas of Remax Select One, one of the event’s Title Sponsors weighs in about the reasons for his support by saying, “I was shocked to learn about 16,000 homeless kids in Orange County.  As soon as I heard that statistic, I knew we needed to do something.  The way our entire community has rallied around this cause is amazing.  Colette’s Children’s Home is doing so many good things for the homeless kids here in Orange County.”

This event is projected to raise $15,000 through sponsorships, entry tickets, and raffle tickets. Fundraisers like this are especially successful because for every dollar Colette’s Children’s Home receives in private funding and individual contributions, it has the ability to match that dollar with an additional three to four dollars through a matching grant program.

The support given from the real estate and affiliate community has been truly amazing.  Every Child Deserves a Chance has received an outpouring of over 40 corporate and individual sponsors who are committed to cause of ending homelessness in our community.  It is through their support that this event has become a success.  All of our sponsors, committed volunteers, and the community members supporting this event are empowering Colette’s Children’s Home to serve some of the most needy and vulnerable members of our community: homeless mothers and their children.
