This particular event supports M.I.K.I.D. and Catholic Community Services, who are both grateful to be a part of this fundraiser.
M.I.K.I.D. started about 37 years ago in Arizona and initially began as a support group. Now, the organization is in Yuma County.
"We do field trips, special programs for children, support groups for children, and we support the mental and behavioral health of children and use through a family-centered approach in Yuma County," explained Jennifer Sterenberg, M.I.K.I.D. Community Outreach Coordinator. "This event will give us funds and also Catholic Community Services, to do more with our families and our children. We always are falling short, so this money will help both of our organizations greatly."
Mayor Doug Nicholls will be at the event and is also a big supporter of Catholic Community Services and M.I.K.I.D. since it's benefiting great causes.
Yuma Investment Group has been sponsoring the event for about 12 years.
M.I.K.I.D. has eight locations, but all the money is raised for the location in Yuma.
"We're always looking for employees. We need behavioral health technicians and counselors," shared Sterenberg.
