Support Foster Care, Go Dancing!

Foster Care Support Foundation (FosterCares, FCSF) will host its ninth annual All Kids Count Benefit Gala soon, in hopes the community will rally to support the organization, which helps to "enrich the lives of Georgia’s foster children and to help acquire and retain foster parents."

Gala guests will spend an elegant evening participating in silent auctions, enjoying dinner, getting out on the dance floor to songs performed by Atlanta favorite, the Banks and Shane band, and being entertained at America’s largest dance club and concert hall, Wild Bills, according to event information.

The night will also include several opportunities to bid on items at the live and silent auction.

"We are so thankful for our supporters and sponsors who have helped us bring our annual gala to life," said Rachel Ewald, the Founder of FosterCares. "Together with all of our guests, our efforts will not only benefit the foster children of the Atlanta area, but also foster children and families throughout the entire state of Georgia."

FosterCares provides free clothing, shoes, infant equipment, books, school supplies and developmental toys to thousands of foster children in foster care homes, according to a press release. They also serve grandparents raising grandchildren and relatives caring for other relative’s children for a limited time.

The gala will take place at Wild Bills in Duluth on Saturday, April 20 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Tickets are $150 per person and can be purchased at fostercares.org or by mail by printing out the reply card on the website. All the proceeds from the gala will benefit the Foster Care Support Foundation.
