Trail Blazers Holds 18th Annual Benefit
On November 6th, 2007, friends and donors of Trail Blazers joined alumni and current campers to enjoy A Celebration to Benefit New York Kids. Trail Blazers’ participation in the gala event was made possible through a partnership with Youth, I.N.C. The benefit allowed us to increase the visibility of our programs and raise substantial funds without having to manage or pay for an event. As a result, almost 100% of funds raised went directly to the youth we serve! We look forward to working with Youth, I.N.C. next year for another fantastic event and fundraising opportunity.
