The Caring For The Kids banquet is a wonderful evening event that begins with a social hour featuring silent auction packages and an opportunity to grant wishes for children. Following the social hour, guests enjoy a sit-down dinner, a keynote speaker and a live auction. Proceeds from this event benefit the children and families served by Children’s Home Society.
