What a spooktacular night! Joy, laughter, and togetherness filled the Education Center on our Milch-Mitchell Campus during the Essential Care for Children Halloween Bash! Families enjoyed creative costumes, festive food, face painting, amazing balloon entertainment and a bubble show - but most importantly, the chance to connect with others who share similar experiences. It was a night full of fun, meaning, and community spirit- a beautiful reminder of the care and connection at the heart of our Essential Care for Children program.

Special thanks to the Making Memories That Last Foundation for sponsoring this event!

We are grateful to WOW Party and Buffalo Face Paint for helping make the bootiful evening extra special with their entertainment and services. A heartfelt thank you to our generous in-kind donors: Mayer Bros., Papa’s Pizzeria, and Badding Farms. Because of your support, our families created invaluable memories to cherish all season long!
