Description

Works of Heart is FSGC's popular art-themed fundraising event. An online auction -- including professional artwork, home decor, hand-crafted jewelry, fun family experience and more -- will open two weeks prior to the event. Then, on Saturday, August 5, community leaders and FSGC supporters will enjoy this unique, feel-good event which includes a social hour and music. The highlight of the evening will be the live auction of colorful artwork created by 15 of FSGC's inspiration client kids, along with a meet-and-greet with each of our talented young artists. Last year's event raised over $113,000.

Proceeds will go toward the completion of the new Youth Crisis & Recovery Center, a 24-bed facility designed for the care of children experencing severe mental health crises. It will also house our substance use treatment program for adolescents living with substance use disorders and mental health challenges at the same time.

Your donation to our silent auction will play an important role in the success of our fundraiser and the continued treatment of our community's most vulnerable kids.
