Come out and
have fun
The Sweet Julia Grace Foundation hosts several fundraising events each year and benefits from multiple fundraisers that are hosted by SJGF friends and partners as well. These events bring the community together, inspire volunteerism, and help SJGF raise money & awareness. SJGF founder, Sara Knight, said, “Our goal has always been to host unique fundraisers that not only raise money, but also bring the community together for a good cause. People have an opportunity to come together and have fun, while giving back at the same time.“
