ShelterWalk

November 2, 2019 - The Details

Thirty years supporting the Woonsocket Shelter, which provides so much more than just a bed—offering life-skills tools like Money Sense and job training classes, and connecting with services, such as counseling, child development, and after school programs. At any given time, 20 families and 8 single women live at the shelter; and every day we see their hopes come alive. Thank you for 30 years of caring and kindness supporting people struggling without a place to live.

Community Champions & Music Event   March 28, 2019 

Each spring, we host a major fundraising event to honor individuals who have done exemplary work contributing time, energy and talents to create positive change. We hope you will join us. In 2019 we  over 80 people came out to support honorees: Dave Richards, General Manager of WOON Radio, and Tanja Kubas-Meyer, Executive Director of Rhode Island Coalition for Children and Families, along with employees, Lorna Cohen, Agape Center Manager, and Emidio Rosa, Family Support Center Supervisor. CCA extends appreciation to the 12 sponsors of the event, including Premier Sponsors, Charlesgate, Mutual of America, and Provider Group. $8,000 was raised to support the agency’s programs.
