LARC's 2023 Appreciation Dinner

The Board of Directors, parents, friends, staff, and clients of LARC, cordially invite you to attend and celebrate our achievements on Friday, October 6, 2023, at the Serbian Social Center, for our Annual Appreciation Dinner! The event will be held from 6:00 p.m. through 10:30 p.m.

At the event, LARC will celebrate its accomplishments, and recognize the service and participation milestones of its staff and clients. In addition to the award presentations, the event features appetizers, dinner, complimentary cocktails, raffles, a silent auction, music & dancing. The event is one of LARC’s largest fundraising events, raising revenues through ticket sales, sponsorships, donations, and proceeds from the auction and raffles.

Reservations are $65 each. Sponsorships vary in price from $125 to $1,000 with varying inclusions. Their Half-Carat Diamond Raffle tickets are $20 each or $50 for three, and the winner need not be present. Those unable to attend may consider donating an item, gift certificate, or gift basket to the auction and raffles, or becoming a sponsor for the event.

Proceeds from this year’s event will help to create a new sensory space at our Lansing Campus. There, clients will have an opportunity to stimulate all their senses in a fun and engaging manner. The space will include a variety of exercises and activities in a multi-sensory environment, giving individuals a place to reset themselves from the stresses they may experience. This can provide a calming effect, improve mental health, and ultimately lead to a healthier environment for everyone.

Reservations and sponsorships must be received by Monday, September 22. In-kind donations for the auction and raffle must also be received by Monday, September 22. For more information about the event, please contact the Development Office at (708) 474-1540.
