The Annual Catholic Charities Labouré Center Spring Reception is our largest annual fundraiser. Due to the pandemic we had to cancel this event in 2020 and, in it's place, hold two online auctions. This year, our event was scheduled to take place on April 30th but, due to ongoing State of MA restrictions on gatherings, had to be postponed until September 9, 2021 when we will be holding our one time only Catholic Charities Labouré Center AUTUMN Reception. This event traditionally has been attended by between 250 and 300 supporters, including local celebrities and politicians. The event includes a speaking program during which a dedicated donor is honored as well as a silent and live auction. NOTE: August 2021... WE HAVE HAD TO CANCEL OUR "IN PERSON" RECEPTION DUE TO CONCERN OVER COVID DELTA VARIANT. PLEASE SUPPORT OUR ONLINE AUCTION FROM SEPT. 10TH-20TH WHICH WE WILL BE HOLDING IN IT'S PLACE.
