Description

The Speech and Language Development Center (#95-2162129) kindly asks for your support at our annual weekend of signature fundraising events. This year, we are kicking off the weekend of September 15th and 16th with SLDC's Night of Bright Futures charity dinner and will be ending with our 46th Annual Dick Gorrie Memorial Golf Tournament.

These cornerstone events collectively draw over 500 attendees each year and play a pivotal role in fueling SLDC's annual fundraising efforts. Your generous contribution, whether in the form of a gift certificate, a unique experience, or a valuable product from your business, will significantly enrich our live and silent auctions during these events, directly benefiting our students with moderate-to-severe intellectual and developmental disabilities.

SLDC's Night of Bright Charity Dinner will take place at the renowned Balboa Bay Resort in Newport Beach. Guests will immerse themselves in a night of fun, philanthropy, live and silent auction as we gear up for our Monday golf tournament.

The following morning, we’ll venture to Costa Mesa Country Club. This beautiful 36 hole golf course sets the stage to provide about 288 players with an unforgettable day of golfing excellence and friendly competition.
