KidsTLC’s Benefit23: Dream

KidsTLC’s Benefit23: Dream will be held at J. Rieger & Company on October 7th. Sarah and Ryan Owings are serving as the event chairs. In keeping with the theme, guests should envision a “sophisticated pajama party.” In addition to exploration of the J. Rieger & Company distillery, the agenda will include custom cocktails, delicious food stations, creative photo opportunities, and live and virtual auctions. This will be followed by the Benefit After Party, which will be complete with late-night refreshments – and dancing to the musical stylings of a DJ. Proceeds are earmarked to help support children and their families who are facing challenges of mental and behavioral health, developmental trauma, and autism.
