Blue Ribbon Event

 

Thank you to all those who supported the 2010 Blue Ribbon Event!

 

More than 300 people joined us at the 14th annual Blue Ribbon Event on Friday, April 23 at the Hilton Garden Inn in Oshkosh. Your support, along with our generous sponsors and donors, helped us raise proceeds of more than $20,000 to support parents and families in the Oshkosh area.

 

All proceeds from the Blue Ribbon Event benefit Parent Connection, a parent education and support program designed to encourage, strengthen, and support families through voluntary home visitation, family wellness workshops, family fun events, and more!
