A huge THANK YOU to all of the sponsors, guests and donors who attended our annual fundraiser! The cabaret was a great success! We had about 70 Project supporters attend and raised about ten thousand dollars in pledges and donations!  The fundraiser performance featured five current Project students as well as seven Project alumni, who told stories through song about the impact that The Project has had on their young lives.  Mike Wenrick, another project alumni and regional director for Medical Teams international, gave a heartfelt and poignant keynote speech highlighting how The Project has not only affected him but also how he uses his theatre background in his work with children and families in need in Latin America and the Carribbean.  We were very fortunate to have in attendance Elisa Klein of the Portland Society page, who took some fabulous photographs!  Please click the link below to visit the Portland Society Page and read more about the fundraiser!
