On March 3, Davidson College will host the 6th annual ICE Gala, benefiting the Ada Jenkins Center, a regional community services center on Gamble Street in Davidson.
Money raised at the annual event will support the center’s many programs, including LEARN Works – which provides tutoring for 60 area elementary children from Davidson and Cornelius elementary; the Mobile Community Dental Clinic and the Center’s free medical clinic, and other programs.
The center, which also has youth education, crisis assistance and economic independence programs, has a history of stretching funds to ensure this mix of comprehensive services remains. Last year the Center provided services to more than 19,000 residents throughout the region, many benefiting from multiple programs.
The annual ICE Gala begins with a 6 p.m. cocktail reception and silent auction, followed by a buffet dinner and live auction with items including a condo in Daytona and tickets to the Daytona 500, a boat for a day and cottage on the lake for the weekend, and a golf cart.
Tickets are $150 and may be purchased online at www.adajenkins.org/events/ice.
