Photos of Our First Year
This first year has been one of constant growth. More children joined as the year progressed, and through the generosity of so many supporters we have acquired many, many more materials.

We raised just over $3,000 at our Mardi Gras Gala 2019, and we’re already planning for next year. (Mark your calendar for the second annual Mardi Gras Gala: February 22, 2020!) But here’s a little video to show all of our supporters some of the great materials their partnership has helped supply.
We’re pleased to share these pictures from the Mardi Gras taken by Brian Sizemore of the Harmonium Project (have we mentioned how important their help was in making this happen?). Also, we have a trivia winner (and the answers) and an unclaimed prize. Go to our wrap-up post and see if it’s yours!
Just before we went upstairs for the coronation of the King and Queen of Mardi Gras, a reporter and cameraman from WTOV-9 walked into the Mardi Gras Gala.
A few notes to wrap up the Mardi Gras Gala—an unclaimed Chinese auction Echo and a trivia winner!
You haven’t missed your opportunity to join us at the Mardi Gras 2019 Gala! Ticket sales ended this past Saturday, but there are still tickets available.
More and moar and MOAR AWESOME AUCTION ITEMS are rolling in! There will be an item that you want, so don’t miss the opportunity to win it for less!
What’s Mardi Gras without king cake? We will have a bunch of king cakes, each with its own baby, made possible by a generous donor. If you get the baby in your piece of king cake you get extra tickets to use at the chuck-a-luck wheel!
We’re pleased to announce the following confirmed sponsorships for the Mardi Gras Gala 2019!
