Café Thirty-A raises record $35K for Caring and Sharing of South Walton

Blog, Home Page Blog

SEAGROVE BEACH – Café Thirty-A held its annual Charity Ball Jan. 9, 2021 at the restaurant. After being rescheduled from the original December date, the winter event raised a record-breaking total of $35,564 for Caring and Sharing of South Walton, an organization that provides food and financial assistance to area families and individuals in need. 

Guests were invited to enjoy a buffet featuring some of the restaurant’s signature dishes in addition to passed hors d’oeuvres and a champagne toast upon entry. A commemorative photo booth by Epic Photo Co. and music provided by DJ 30A entertained the guests while they mixed and mingled. Event goers also had the opportunity to view and bid on various pieces of art, jewelry, gift baskets, trips, and other luxurious items featured in the extensive silent auction.

Funds were generated from ticket sales, the silent auction, raffle, and personal donations. This is the most money raised in the event’s history and is almost double the amount raised from last year’s event. The money will be used to provide food and assistance to local area families with the additional support from churches, civic groups, individuals, and other businesses.

“The funds raised at the annual Cafe Thirty- Charity Ball will help us continue providing thousands of Walton County residents with food, financial assistance, and access to community resources during the next several months,” said Carly Barnes, executive director for Caring and Sharing of South Walton. “The community’s generosity at this event, and the continued generosity of Cafe Thirty-A, is greatly appreciated by the Caring & Sharing team and the families we serve each month, thank you!”
