Starbright Ball for Cherish the Children

What a beautiful evening for the 7th annual Starbright Ball for the Cherish the Children foundation! Mrs. Connecticut was on hand to assist with the Diamond Necklace raffle courtesy of Glastonbury Jewelers. Partygoers were entertained by the Starlight Orchestra's Sarah Scott Band and everyone enjoyed ESPN's Neill Everett as the evenings master of ceremonies. The silent auction and ALL the raffle items were incredible.












The foundation has started a "teen" volunteer group within the organization and all the young girls wore tiaras to identify themselves and helped sell raffle tickets and assist with the event, what a wonderful way to get our youth involved with giving back!
CTCF is a 100% VOLUNTEER based organization made up of a dedicated board of directors, an army of enthusiastic volunteers, and generous donors, all of whom have identified CTCF as their charity of choice. CTCF serves a unique role in Connecticut as a direct resource for children who have a financial or medical equipment need, which often stem from a terminal or long-term illness and is not being met by traditional funding such as insurance. Please log onto thier website and donate to this very special organization! http://www.ctchildren.org/
