A ticket to the event includes

  • $50 in casino chips
  • two drink tickets
  • heavy appetizers and dessert bar
  • admission to the Wyeth galleries

Serving at the Crossroads was founded in 2004. The nonprofit partners with Manos Amigas, a non-government organization (NGO) in Honduras, to provide high-quality medical, dental, and eye care to those who have less in the Copan region of Honduras.

This is what the clinic looks like today with the support of Serving at the Crossroads.

The founders of Serving at the Crossroads knew the standard nonprofit model of swooping into an underserved area and “fixing” everything wouldn’t work for long-term sustainability and improving quality of life. Therefore, to enable local people to help themselves, Serving at the Crossroads embraced the philosophy of “aid, inform, and empower” as its model.

Staffed with local healthcare professionals, the clinic is open seven days a week. Serving at the Crossroads augments the Honduran staff with brigades of U.S. specialists who treat patients and train local healthcare providers.

To date, the clinic has treated more than 180,000 patients. With mentoring from Serving at the Crossroads, the clinic staff and the Manos Amigas Board have taken ownership of the clinic, solving the day-to-day problems and planning for the future.

A sponsorship of Casino Night will not only make a difference in other people’s lives. It will provide your company with valuable exposure in an upscale venue to an audience of professionals, including doctors, nurses, business people, and other benefactors, many of whom have put service to others before self.
