A Special Thank You to Our Community
Thank you for helping make our 2026 Cherish the Child Country Gala a success!
Together, our community raised $9,765 to support child abuse prevention and family strengthening in Rhode Island.
Held on August 28 at Faith Hill Farm, the evening brought together families, community members, local businesses, sponsors, donors, volunteers, and supporters for a night of BBQ, live music by North County Band, dancing, raffles, and connection.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who contributed their time, resources, talents, and generosity to make the evening possible — thank you for helping us Cherish the Child. 💙
With Gratitude
Special thanks to our sponsors, raffle donors, volunteers, event partners, and the team at Faith Hill Farm for helping make this event possible.
Your support helps us continue strengthening families and advancing child abuse prevention across Rhode Island.
