The Children’s Advocacy Center of Independence County will host its Harvesting Hope Gala on Sept. 25 at the Los Ramones Event Center in Batesville.
The event, presented by First Community Bank, begins at 6 p.m. and will feature a catered dinner, speakers, raffle prizes from local businesses and an overview of the center’s services for children and families across Independence, Izard, Fulton, Sharp and Stone counties.
The Harvesting Hope Gala raises critical funds to provide free, trauma-informed services to child abuse victims and their families in Independence, Izard, Fulton, Sharp, and Stone counties.
“All proceeds from the Harvesting Hope Gala go directly toward providing free, trauma-informed services for child abuse victims and their families,” Executive Director Rhonda Woods said in a statement. “This event is not just a fundraiser—it’s an opportunity for us to share our story with the community and invite them to be part of a child’s healing journey.”
Tickets and sponsorships are available at givebutter.com/HarvestingHopeGala or cacindependence.org. Those interested in sponsorships may call Woods at 870-569-8099.
