ABOUT THE EVENT

 

We are thrilled to invite you to this year’s Growing Together Gathering, a night of community, connection, and fun – now with an exciting Game Night theme! On May 16th, join us at Building 4 in Manchester for an unforgettable evening celebrating the joy of play while supporting a great cause.

This year, we're bringing the thrill of classic and contemporary board games, plus video games and more to the event. Expect an engaging lineup of activities, prizes, entertainment, and culinary delights, paired with craft beverages and, of course, our signature annual auction. Whether you're rolling the dice, solving puzzles, or exploring new ways to connect, there will be something for everyone.

Bring the whole family! We’re delighted to offer activities and entertainment for both children and adults, ensuring a fantastic night for all ages. Because who says the kids don’t deserve a fun night out too?

Most importantly, this special evening supports children in need. Proceeds from this year’s event will fund critical renovations, expansions, and program improvements across departments at CCGC, enabling us to better serve our clients and students. These funds will help create new resources and enhance the spaces where children and families work to overcome behavioral and mental health challenges and other difficult circumstances. Stay tuned for more information on how your ticket purchase, sponsorship, or auction item donation will make an impact this year! 

Join us for a night of laughter, connection, and support – all while making a meaningful difference in our community. We can’t wait to see you there!

WHAT TO EXPECT

Join us on May 16th at 6:30 pm and experience the magic that happens when a community comes together for an important cause.
