We are so grateful for the amazing support shown by the community at our 20th annual Vintage Affair fundraising gala! On October 21, we hosted a Paris-themed ‘party with a purpose’ at Mercedes-Benz USA headquarters to raise funds for CAC’s emergency assistance program. Every corner of the community pulled together to make the evening a success.
We’d like to extend a special thank you to our sponsors, especially our presenting sponsor, Mercedes-Benz USA. Sponsors included Graphic Packaging International, Holder Construction, Northside Hospital, Delta Dental, Dunwoody United Methodist Church, Misty Creek Community Church, Hartman Simons, Mather Economics, Temple Emanu-El, Temple Sinai, Euro Vision Printing, and SR Walker Designs. Without these companies and congregations, this event would not have been possible.
In addition, we’d like to recognize our Host Committee. This group of committed individuals and community leaders helped immensely in spreading the word about the event, and about CAC as a whole. We are deeply touched by each Host’s continuing support of CAC.
