Roaring 1920s Soiree Benefitting Abused and Neglected Children In Colorado

May 25, 2010—Denver, CO. The Young Philanthropist Project and CASA Programs of Metro Denver are excited to announce the 2nd Annual ‘1920s Soiree’ taking place on the evening of Saturday, June 5th from 8-11 PM at The Sherman Street Event Center located at 1770 Sherman Street in Denver, CO. Guests are encouraged to wear flapper dresses, boas and white suits and dance for a cause! Tickets are only $20 and guests will receive entertainment, dance instructions, desserts and more! YPP has partnered with Disguises Costume Shop, who has graciously agreed to donate 10% of costume sales and rentals to CASA Programs of Metro Denver. For more information please visit www.yppcolorado.org.

The Young Philanthropist Project (YPP) was instituted in 2007 as trends showed that it was necessary for people in their 20s, 30s and 40s to get involved in philanthropic ventures in order to ensure our communities move forward in a positive direction. The premise of the YPP is “Small Change, Changing the World.” The group operates under the concept that it is crucial to engage younger generations with philanthropy by offering affordable ticket prices to events, providing reasonable ways for them to make financial contributions and by offering fun, appealing events that offer networking opportunities and access to trendy venues. The YPP is committed to helping raise money and recruit volunteers for CASA so that it can continue to serve abused and neglected children in our communities.

One-hundred percent of proceeds from the evening will aid CASA programs of the Metro Denver area in their fight against child abuse. Each year in Colorado more than 9,000 children are abused and neglected. When these innocent young victims enter the child welfare system, the lucky ones will have an adult volunteer at their side called a CASA – short for Court Appointed Special Advocate. Unlike other professionals involved in these cases, CASA volunteers serve on only one case at a time and spend several hours each month getting to know the children. In contrast, the other professionals work on dozens of cases at a time and do not have as much time to devote to each individual child. That’s why judges have come to rely on the input of CASA volunteers when making decisions about the children’s future. Only CASA volunteers can provide the detailed observations and recommendations that help judges ensure the best interests of the children are served. CASA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

CFK: Day of Rock

In just 6 years Concerts For Kids has distributed over $1,000,000 in monetary and in-kind donations to beneficiaries. Today Concerts For Kids helps support more than 40 child-focused organizations annually through it’s multiple fundraising events and community service projects. The Denver Day of Rock featured 4 stages in downtown Denver with multiple band line-ups. I was in charge of working the VIP tent and the CFK merchandise booth. I have to say that our team rocked the merch booth! We raised a lot of money to help keep Concerts for Kids going and the various projects they do within the community. I absolutely love working with children and it is such an honor to be a part of such a reputable organization. They do so much within the community to help children and provide funding for various projects.
