This year’s gala is especially meaningful as we celebrate becoming the proud new owners of the future 60-acre Fox Cliff Summer Camp &amp; Outdoor Family Center!

There are many ways you can make an impact: • Purchase a ticket and join us for an unforgettable evening. • Choose from one of our sponsorship opportunities. • Donate an item or experience for our silent or live auction. • Share our story and help educate others about the lasting impact Fox Cliff will have on our community.
