Description

On Friday, September 23rd, we are hosting the 6th annual Harvesting Hope fundraiser, an evening in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters of South Huron, at The Barn Restaurant and Pub in Centralia. Harvesting Hope will feature a beffet dinner, live musical entertainment and an on-line auction (running from September 16th to September 30th). 

The goal of Harvesting Hope is to increase community awareness about the mentoring programs we provide, to secure more volunteers to help decrease our waiting list and to raise some much-needed funds for our Agency programs. Althrough we are part of a National organization, our Agency receives no base funding from our National office and minimal program specifics government funding. Our Agency relies primarily on funds raised through The Little Shop (our children's consignment store), grants, sponsorship, individual donations and fundraisers such as this. 

We are seeking:

1) donations towards our on-line auction or 

2) financial sponsorship to help cover the cost of the event
