Acting regionally works...

The Power of Two was the theme of this year's ARCC Annual Dinner. For the first time in the ARCC's history, we "partnered" to combine our annual dinner with the Tri-County United Way's annual dinner and auction. Last year, these two separate events helped the two organizations raise a net of $33,000. This year, our combined dinner event raised a net of over $35,000 with both organizations seeing an increase in net revenues. At the same time, the local companies that traditionally sponsored tables at both events also saw a net savings as they simply purchased a table at one event rather than two. So there is now proof that partnerships, collaborations and working together can be a win-win for everyone involved.
