Supporters had a great time "Movin' for McAuley!"

A big "thank you" to everyone who attended the 7th Annual "Movin' for McAuley" Mall Walk, presented by Panera Bread, on Saturday, March 13, 2010.  The event was another successful fundraiser for the Center as our sponsors and participants helped raise over $18,000!  Those funds will go on to support the Center's Transitional Housing and Adult Basic Education Programs.  

Walkers were also able to visit with the 23 area non-profit agencies and businesses that took part in our "Family Expo" and learn about the services provided in the community as well as information about how to get involved.

Thanks again to everyone who supported the event and we look forward to get "movin" again in 2011!
