Aspire Special Needs Resource Centre presents the 25th Annual Evening of Decadent Dessert

Executive Director, Michelle Sluchinski says, “This is an especially exciting year for us, as Evening of Decadent Dessert is celebrating its 25th anniversary. We invite you to get involved by purchasing your tickets to join us that evening, or donating silent auction items, live auction items, or desserts, as well as supporting Aspire through larger scale sponsorships. Because we have such a supportive community here in central Alberta, we are thrilled that this event is able to celebrate 25 years of brighter futures.”

Sluchinski adds, “This is our biggest fundraising event of the year, so the funds raised from this night are essential to support our programs and specialized equipment purchases, as well as fee assistance for families who are struggling financially.”

Over 500 guests attend Evening of Decadent Dessert each year.

At the event they enjoy a champagne reception, various raffles, entertainment, silent auction, dinner buffet, our famous decadent dessert buffet, and the highlight of the night – a live auction featuring one-of-a-kind cakes paired with unique experiences.

“Of course, our guests really enjoy all the sweets and desserts at this event but besides indulging, they also have the opportunity to learn all about who we are, and what Aspire does for families of children with special needs. Meeting some of our past parents and hearing their stories gives our guests a deeper understanding of how much Aspire means to families here in central Alberta,” says Fund Development Coordinator, Melissa Vine.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m.

Tickets are available now for $100 per person or $750 for a table of eight.

Charitable tax receipts will be issued for a portion of the ticket price.

Buy a table by March 1 for the chance to get in on the Early Bird promotion.
