One of the ways UPARC Foundation raises money to support UPARC is by hosting fundraising events throughout the year. Your community involvement can take many forms; from being a sponsor, an event planning volunteer, or donating an item that can be used in a live or silent auction.
Thank you to our wonderful speakers, committee and guests who attended our 18th Annual Interfaith Prayer Breakfast. It was a beautiful morning of fellowship and inspiration.
