Charles River Center Benefit Gala Friday, May 5th

You are cordially invited to the Charles River Center’s annual Building a Dream benefit gala at 6:00 pm on Friday, May 5th at The Westin Waltham.  It’s an inspiring evening with cocktails, silent and live auctions, dinner and program. Proceeds benefit the 900 people with developmental disabilities supported by the Charles River Center in Needham.  This year we are pleased to honor Tim McCoy, Owner & Operator of McCoy Associates, the franchise that owns the McDonald’s in Needham.  McCoy has made it a priority to hire those with developmental disabilities, and was the employer of Freia David, who worked at the Needham McDonald’s for 32 years, garnering worldwide attention upon her retirement last summer. Emily Riemer, Co-anchor at WCVB-TV, will serve as emcee. Tickets are $175 each. To purchase tickets or a sponsorship, or for more information, visit www.charlesrivercenter.org or contact (781) 972-1030.
