Welcome to the 13th annual Autumn Gala!
We are thrilled to have so many dear friends and generous
supporters here tonight. At Encompass, we believe that what
happens early in life matters … and our vision is a community
where ALL children thrive. We reach that vision through our
mission to partner with families to provide strong foundations
for children. The Autumn Gala is our biggest event of the year
and helps us fund these critically important programs for our
community. We couldn’t do it without you!
On behalf of the children and families helped by Encompass,
thank you!
With gratitude,
