Over 400 Guests Attend The Care Center’s Annual Fundraiser with Leon Botstein

Our annual fundraising dinner on April 27 was a rousing success. More than 400 people attended!

Big ideas and big plans were explored and discussed. Bard College President Leon Botstein shared his perspective on the importance of a liberal arts education for all. Students and staff were articulate and moving. A great time was had by all. Thanks go out to all the staff, board members, friends and volunteers who worked to make such a wonderful evening.

The Care Center gave me hope and a desire for change. They actually cared about me and my child. I quickly earned my GED at 16 years old.
