Gathering of Angels Recap By Monte Abeler | CAI-MN Account Executive

n April 23, 2015, people within the Minnesota community association industry came together at Jax Café to support the efforts of a local charity, Minnesota Adult & Teen Challenge. During this two-hour event, attendees had the privilege of hearing the testimonies of three individuals going through the program at MnATC. The testimonals were powerful, moving, and inspiring. Attendees also enjoyed some food, were able to converse with industry peers and had the opportunity to bid on silent auction items. This annual event is an exceptional way for the community association industry to support our community and learn more about how we can help Minnesota Adult & Teen Challenge clients gain hope, healing and freedom in their lives. This year’s Charitable Outreach event raised more than $5,000 for Minnesota Adult & Teen Challenge. For nearly 30 years, Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge has restored hope to people struggling with drug and alcohol addiction. In addition to their effective and affordable Short-Term Program, Life Renewal Program, and their distinctive Long-Term, FaithBased Recovery Program, they offer extensive prevention and transitional/aftercare services. This meaningful event was organized by Community Associations Institute – Minnesota. ALL PROCEEDS have been donated to Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge! We are grateful for the event sponsors and contributors. We hope to make a significant difference in the lives of people!
