✨ IT TRULY TAKES A VILLAGE.✨
Last night was nothing short of AMAZING! ❤️🖤
We often hear the phrase “It takes a village” when we talk about raising children, but last night reminded us that a village can come together for so much more. It can come together to honor a life, carry a legacy, and pour into a mission that means something.
To every donor, sponsor, attendee, raffle supporter, silent auction bidder, volunteer, and friend who helped make our Cathy R. Watson "Gigi's" Foundation - Roaring 20s Gala such a beautiful success, THANK YOU! 🥂✨ Your generosity, presence, encouragement, and support meant more than words can express.
A special thank you to our amazing caterer Vickie’s Kitchen and Catering by Vickie James for helping make the evening delicious, our incredible band for keeping the celebration going, and everyone who contributed their time, talents, resources, and love behind the scenes. Every piece mattered. Every contribution mattered. YOU mattered.
Last night, we didn't just gather for a gala. We gathered to honor Cathy's life and shine a light on the mission she birthed before leaving this realm. Her love, vision, and desire to help families continue to live through the work of the Cathy R. Watson “GIGI’s” Foundation 💜
What a beautiful reminder that a legacy doesn't end when a life does. Sometimes, it becomes the seed that allows an entire village to grow.
From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU for being part of the village. ❤️
We are grateful. We are humbled. And we are excited for all that is still to come.
Cathy's legacy lives on. And last night, you helped us carry it forward. ✨
