THANK YOU FOR AN AMAZING CASTING HOPE 2024!
Thank YOU for an incredible Casting Hope 2024! The Grand Bohemian ballroom was filled with amazing people who have a heart for the kids we serve and we are so grateful for each and every one of you! Because of you, children of abuse and neglect receive life affirming programming, mentoring and scholarships and are pointed toward a future of HOPE.
Thank you for partnering with us as we work to "cast hope" for these amazing kids. Please take a moment to watch the video below as our campers say “Thank You” and share just how impactful your support is in their lives!
CASTING HOPE 2024 RECAP
We loved having two of our campers, Gia from Still Creek Ranch and Garrett from Big Oak Ranch, serve as our emcees for the evening. They were amazing!
The audience got a sneak peek inside On River Time camps and the lessons learned there, led by founder and keynote speaker, Steve Davis, while the kids gathered around.
Our Live Auction and Fund a Need were incredible with auctioneer Guin Robinson. And we were honored to have the lovely Miss Alabama Abbie Stockard join us and help gin up the crowd in our live auction!
The bidding war for an amazing Ansel Adams - inspired painting by On River Time camper, Prince Fomba, from Still Creek Ranch was record breaking!
And we loved revealing our “Mystery Item” in the live auction, lunch for two WITH THE FONZ HIMSELF, HENRY WINKLER!
