Cheeseburger
in Paradise is the social event of the year and Community Action’s
biggest fundraiser, consistently generating an average of $25,000
annually. The last two events were record-breaking years generating
more than $55,000. “This event is a fun night for our community
supporters to celebrate the agency’s impact and success. This event
also provides vital financial resources each year that help us
maintain program success, provide crisis or emergency services, and
helps us through challenging times including funding delays. This
event is the cornerstone of our agency fundraising efforts.” Said
Chief Visionary Officer, Breann Titus.
Guests enjoy all you can eat cheeseburgers, yummy chicken wings, and
delicious drink specials all while listening to live music provided
