Turning Pointe among beneficiaries of Carousel of Possible Dreams Fundraiser

-

Turning Pointe Autism Foundation is proud to announce its participation in the 2024 Carousel of Possible Dreams, a signature Chicago-area event of the renowned Festival of Children Foundation. The fundraiser will raise essential funds for initiatives to safeguard its precious students.

On October 19, this charitable event at the Sanfilippo Estate in Barrington Hills benefits five impactful organizations, including Turning Pointe Autism Foundation. The evening will begin with tours of the estate’s renowned “Place de la Musique,” showcasing its stunning collection of antique music machines and immersive displays inspired by 1900s Paris. Following the tours, guests will enjoy a dinner program featuring an open bar, entertainment, and carousel rides in the enchanting Carousel Pavilion.

Donations will help Turning Pointe invest in building a new bus drop-off road. As the student body has grown, so has the need for buses and reliable transportation. The road isn’t just about safety; it’s an opportunity for growth. 

“We’re delighted to once again be included as an organization benefiting from the Carousel of Possible Dreams fundraising event,” said Turning Pointe Executive Director, Carrie Provenzale. “Between the food and drink, entertainment, and enchanting carousel rides, we are beyond blessed to be part of such an amazing fundraiser at a truly magical venue.”

Sebert Landscape has committed a match of $5,000 toward the Turning Pointe goal. Community members are encouraged to donate and help advance Turning Pointe’s mission. Participants can support the foundation’s mission by contributing directly to their possible dream fundraising campaign, making a significant impact on the lives of those with autism.
