Golden Halo Benefit for Crossroads Ranch

About Crossroads Ranch: After an accident on November 2, 2002, resulting in a traumatic brain injury, my friend Marcus spent several miserable years in institutions. His mother realized there was a need for a community where special needs adults were treated with respect and where they could become a contributing member of society. Out of necessity and love, Crossroads Ranch was born.

While leaning solely on private contributions — no state or federal funding — Crossroads Ranch will officially open on November 2, 2020. This will mark the eighteenth anniversary since the day of Marcus’s wreck, which eventually launched this God‐sized dream called Crossroads Ranch. If you have not been a part of our previous fundraisers, we have an opportunity for you to become involved.

As an avid supporter, I am excited to host the premier fundraising event for Crossroads Ranch on January 25, 2020, the Golden Halo. This event will be an evening to celebrate the impact of our special needs adults, raise awareness for the cause and provide an opportunity to con nue our mission to raise funds for this amazing community. The evening includes a live and silent auc on, dinner, live music, celebri es and other surprises that you will not want to miss. We have set a goal of raising $300,000 through this single event. I am asking for your help to meet and surpass this lofty goal.

The money raised through tickets, sponsorships, and the night of the event will be used to further expand the Ranch. Many special needs adults are anxiously awaiting the day they can move into their duplex and call the Ranch home. Your partnership is vital in moving forward. The future residents of Crossroads Ranch appreciates each and every donation.

Thank you in advance for your prayers and support of this God‐driven mission.
