Kids 'n Kinship 2013 Gala A Huge Success!

Our 2013 Gala was a huge success!  We were completely sold out with 160 attendees! Preliminary numbers show that we raised over twice our goal!  Kids 'n Kinship is so thankful to everyone who supported the event by sponsoring it, donating items for the silent auction, wine pull or purse pull, or who promoted or attended the event.

Special thanks to guest musician Tim Mahoney for sharing his talent with us & to James Backstrom, Dakota County Attorney, for being our Master of Ceremonies!

We especially appreciate Drew Hendrickson who gave his testimony about how being mentored as a child changed his life!

THANK YOU for helping Kids 'n Kinship to continue to serve youth in Dakota County by matching them with volunteer mentors!
