Dear Friend,

I would like to personally invite you to be part of a very special evening – the 33rd Annual Taste of Lapeer, on October 8, 2026, at the Lapeer Country Club.

Taste of Lapeer is LACADA‘s largest annual fundraiser, bringing our community together for an evening of exceptional food from local restaurants, exciting auctions, and fellowship—all while supporting survivors of domestic violence.

For more than 35 years, LACADA has provided safe shelter, advocacy, and supportive services to women and children escaping domestic violence. Since opening our doors, we have provided shelter to more than 4,900 survivors. As federal and state funding for victim services continues to decline, community support has become more important than ever. The funds raised through Taste of Lapeer help ensure that survivors in Lapeer County continue to have a safe place to turn during times of crisis.

We invite you to support this year’s event in one or more of the following ways:

• Attend Taste of Lapeer on October 8. Tickets are $75 each and may be purchased at http://www.lacada.org.
  Bring a friend, colleague, or family member and enjoy an evening of great food, fun, and community.
• Donate an auction or raffle item. All donors will be recognized in our event auction booklet.
• Become an Event Sponsor. With six sponsorship levels available, your business or organization will receive valuable recognition while demonstrating its commitment to supporting survivors in our community.

Please complete the enclosed Sponsorship/Auction Donation Form or visit http://www.lacada.org to learn more about sponsorship opportunities. Every contribution, large or small, makes a meaningful difference.

Thank you for considering this request and for helping LACADA continue providing hope, safety, and support to survivors of domestic violence in Lapeer County. If you have any questions, please contact us at (810) 667-4193 Ext: 1 or lacada@lacada.org.
