The Catholic Young Adult Community of Columbia invites all young adults  to an event to raise funds and collect material donations for Birthright of Columbia!Â
Birthright of Columbia provides expectant mothers and fathers with material assistance, job resources, educational options, and medical and financial referrals. Birthright will receive all benefits from this Fundraising event.Â
Join us for a wonderful evening of great food, signature cocktails, and a plain old good time. Men, break out the suits! Ladies, dig into your closets for your cocktail dresses! Bring your checkbooks (or Venmo accounts) for our Silent Auction as well! All proceeds from this event will benefit expecting mothers through Birthright of Columbia.
 This event is a fundraiser. A $25 ticket donation will go to support Birthright, and will get you unlimited food, a plate of paella, and a drink ticket for the bar - additional drink tickets will be a $5 donation, with a $4 Happy Hour from 6-7pm! Tickets are $5 less for those not drinking (use code NODRINKS when reserving tickets), and an additional $5 off for those who do not want the Paella (use code NOPAELLA)  We will be accepting cash, card, and check at the door, but we encourage everyone to purchase their tickets in advance, either from this site, or from a YACs representative.Â
We would be happy for you to join us! If you would like to come from out of town please contact us so that we can connect you with a local host!
Please bring items such as diapers, wipes, baby clothes, and baby shampoo. Each physical donation enters your name into our Door Prize raffle for $100 Visa Gift Card! If you want to skip the store, you can purchase and send an item to our event site in advance via our Amazon Baby Shower List!
   In addition to a selection of wine, bubbles, and beer, we will be        serving   signature cocktails designed specifically for this event, as     well as some well loved classics! One drink ticket is included with      the initial donation of $25, and additional drink tickets will be $5      and well worth it (with a $4 Happy Hour)! Non-alcohol options will   be available for  drivers, those under 21, and expectant mothers.
Desserts and small plates to suit the tastes and diets of all will be provided! Please contact us if you have special dietary restrictions that you wish to be accomodated!
    This year, step out into the evening air and grab your plate ofÂ
     steaming paella made on the veranda. "Paco's Paella Package"Â
     will be cooked and served onsite, by I Love Paella (maybe youÂ
     have seen them on Saturdays at the Soda City Market). Price of aÂ
     plate is included in your donation price of $25!
