Throughout the past two years, babies were still born with Down syndrome; children still diagnosed with autism and we supported those families through our extensive and established outreach network. In order to continue to serve and speak for those who cannot speak up for themselves, we need to rebuild our financial resources.
We pride ourselves on having an event that raises as much awareness as it does money! This year will be no exception. From the moment you enter the Royal Park, the experience will be unique. You will have access to rare wines for tasting, collector quality artwork, exquisite dinner and one of a kind experiences offered through our silent and live auctions. At the same time, you will learn of the achievements of individuals with cognitive challenges.
Matthew Gibb, Deputy Oakland County Executive, Economic Development and Community Affairs, and his wife Debbie are serving as our honorary chairs. Oakland County, under the steady leadership of L. Brooks Patterson, has been a leader in job creation and in the resurgence we see in the area.
At Starry Night, our newest initiative, Jobs with Dignity, will be shared with you. All of the hard work we have done, with your support, over the past years will culminate in increased employment for individuals with Down syndrome and other challenges, This is why we do what we do! This is why we ask for your help. To gives lives purpose. As anyone who has worried about job loss or sought employment knows, good lives include meaningful work.
Sponsors are critical to small non-profits like Band of Angels. Your sponsorship enables us to continue to provide needed programs and services. Learn more.
