To celebrate, the Community Foundation is holding a Midlands Gives Block Party — rain or shine — from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday, May 7, at Segra Park. Attendees can look forward to a fun day with games, complimentary hot dogs, popcorn and soft drinks. Donors attending the Block Party also will have a chance to win prizes by donating at one of the foundation’s Giving Stations.
“Midlands Gives Day is not only about raising funds; it’s about bringing our community together to make a meaningful difference,” says Erin Johnson, vice president of community investment. “Every donation, no matter the size, can transform lives and strengthen our community.”
