VOLUNTEER APPRECIATION DINNER

We recently had the privilege of celebrating many CrossNet Volunteers at our Volunteer Appreciation Event!

It was a wonderful evening of fellowship and getting to intentionally thank CrossNet Volunteers for offering hope and help in the name of Jesus to the ELANCO community.

We know that CrossNet would not be here without the support and partnership of each incredible Volunteer! We are truly better together!

We are excited to announce the total raised from the evening was $206,705!!!

This total is more than we have raised at any other previous annual banquet! This could not have been done without the support and generosity of our community. Thank you so much for offering help and hope in the name of Jesus!

Pursuing God together....
