All proceeds from the event benefit the Children’s Advocacy Center of Paris. Executive Director Rebecca Peevy explains, “Every child deserves to grow up in an environment that is safe. Sadly, child abuse is a harsh reality facing many children here in Lamar and Red River Counties. We are fighting every day to bring awareness and action to these children whose carefree dreams have been taken away.”
Peevy adds, “We are honored to have been part of the community for the past fifteen years, and in that time we have helped change the lives of over 3,000 child victims.”
