Bids for Kidz is an annual fundraising event hosted by the Lake Sumter Children's Advocacy Center (CAC). The event is scheduled for March 8th. This is a fun evening and the food is outstanding.  Because of our involvement with CAC, the LCWA is given a number of complimentary tickets for the event.  At the January meeting, a lottery drawing for tickets will be held.  All active members will be entered into the lottery.  If your name is pulled and you are at the January meeting, you will need to confirm if you will attend so look on your calendars now to determine if you are free March 8th. If your name is pulled and you are not at the meeting, you will be called and asked to confirm if you will or will not attend.  Based on acceptances, names will be drawn until all tickets are taken.

        The taping was broadcast at 5:20pm. 

At the May Meeting, Paul Giorgio of Channel 6 filmed and interviewed members of LCWA along with Brenda Crellen for a special report on what the Children's Advocacy Center does to provide comprehensive trauma informed
services at no cost to child victims of crime in Lake and Sumter Counties highlighting how the LCWA supports this work.  Know that the funds raised by our organization helped provide 2,043 mental health services, 3,851 victim advocacy services and 1,583 child protection services during the center's 2022/2023 fiscal year.  A tremendous thank you to our members for your generosity and kindness.

















As a result of the response the channel received from our broadcast, Channel 6 presented us a beautiful plaque and a $100 donation!
