Café Thirty-A Raises Record $35,564 for Caring and Sharing

January 29, 2021 by SoWal Staff

Café Thirty-A in Seagrove Beach raised a record-breaking total of $35,564 for Caring and Sharing of South Walton during its annual Charity Ball.

"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!"

Guests were invited to enjoy a decadent 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.

Through ticket sales, funds raised from the silent auction, raffle, and personal donations, the Café Thirty-A Charity Ball raised a record-breaking grand total of $35,564 for Caring and Sharing of South Walton. 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.
