Coalition for the Homeless of Central Florida
3rd Annual Celebration

On Thursday, September 18, 2008, Coalition for the Homeless will sponsor the 3rd Annual Celebration. The 11 am – 1 pm luncheon event will be held at the Wyndham Orlando Resort Convention Center, 8001 International Drive, Orlando,FL 32819.

Keynote speaker Danny Wuerffel is a Heisman Trophy winner, Florida Gator and former pro-football player. He holds no less than 32 National, Conference and School Records and maintains a legendary status as one of the greatest college football players ever to play the game. Danny is also the Executive Director of Desire Street Ministries in New Orleans, LA, which has been working to transform pockets of poverty in the Upper Ninth Ward through spiritual and community development, and is replicating its model in other areas of the country. Join us for lunch to hear how this local football hero has devoted his life to helping revitalize impoverished neighborhoods.

Another treat this year will be the unique display of artwork created by homeless children as part of our Art By Coalition Children (ABCs) program. ABCs is a collaborative effort between the Central Florida arts, business and education communities to provide a creative outlet for the children that call the Coalition home.

Tickets are $150 each and $1,500 for a table of ten (10). Sponsorship packages are also available at the $30,000, $15,000 and $5,000 levels. For more information, please contact Debbie Melton at 407- 426-1265 or debbie.melton@cflhomeless.org.
