2021 Mad Hatter Fundraiser

A Fundraiser for Transition House’s Programs for Children

The Mad Hatter Luncheon will not take place in person this year due to the pandemic. We are so disappointed we won’t be able to join together with friends like you. But this year, we are still going to give you the chance to help Transition House with a virtual auction, a raffle and the opportunity to double your contribution!

Children in poverty are suffering more than ever. Transition House remains open to help children go to school while their parents get back on their feet and back into housing. We are providing a distance learning program for children, so they won’t fall behind their housed classmates. Our licensed infant care center is also open and providing care while parents go to work, earning money to return to housing. Your contribution will fund programs like these!

We have a match, so your donation will double!

This year, we have a donor who has agreed to match every dollar we raise, up to $100,000. With your help, we can meet that goal! There are three ways to help.

• First, make a donation by CLICKING HERE!
• Second, visit our ONLINE SILENT AUCTION from April 1st to April 15, 2021, where you will have the chance to purchase over 60 lovely items!
