Kids Court & Counseling Center, incorporated in 2014
Our first fundraiser was held on October 20, 2017 at Monteleone Meadows in Murrieta. It was an intimate 50 person dinner. It was a beautiful evening and we raised a significant amount of money in which we were able to a lot more free therapy opportunities for children who can benefit from accessing this service.
We want to thank The Monteleone Family for donating this evening to the Humanity of Justice Foundation (HOJF).
We want to thank Judge Burke Strunsky for bidding on this amazing dinner during a live auction at the HOJF Fundraiser & GIFTING IT to Kids Court. We feel so blessed and honored to receive this amazing gift and opportunity to grow as a charity.
So this evening was a truly a "gift" in every possible way.
We continue to fundraise online. Please click on the button below !
