The Children’s Advocacy Center is instrumental in providing a coordinated response to child victims of abuse and neglect. Its mission is to enhance the lives of at-risk children and their families through their comprehensive prevention services. This past year, CAC provided crucial services to more than 2,000 children and adults in Southwest Florida.

A group of thirty women Grandezza golfers recently donated over $1,700 in bed linens, bath towels, baby supplies and toiletries. These donations were delivered to the center on February 24. The group then Women Golfers Pitch In for Children’s Advocacy toured the recently remodeled facilities and learned more about the work of the agency.

The generosity of donors like these Grandezza women is vital to CAC’s mission of offering a safe haven for abused and neglected children, ensuring their voices are heard and their needs are met.
