Celebrating Charitable Giving

The Topeka Community Foundation had another successful turnout with their popular one-day donation event!
 
CRC was happy to participate, share a table with the YWCA of Northeast Kansas, and talk with others about our organization! The one day total for 2016 Topeka Gives event was an astounding  $496,288.92. Great way to illustrate charitable giving in Topeka. Thanks Topeka Community Foundation!
