31st Annual Arkansas Children's Award Dinner

For 31 years, Arkansas Sheriffs’ Youth Ranches (ASYR) has recognized Arkansans who have made outstanding contributions to create better opportunities for Arkansas children. These Arkansans personify in word and deed the ideals of the Ranch, and hundreds gather each year to pay tribute to their dedication at the Arkansas Children’s Award Dinner. This year, ASYR is excited to present the 31st annual Arkansas Children’s Award to Laura Landreaux, a generous advocate for building brighter futures for Arkansas youth. Since the Sheriffs of Arkansas founded the Youth Ranches 50 years ago, it has been a place to call home for more than 2,300 of Arkansas’s most vulnerable boys and girls. As an independent 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, ASYR is 100% privately funded and a 100% free service to children in crisis. This event helps raise 10% of the ASYR’s operating budget each year.
