Celebrity Waiter Night was, once again, a great success in both Aiken and North Augusta in 2025! Check out the link below to view the Post & Courier’s article about CWN, a fundraiser that is now considered a beloved local tradition each May. CWN 2025 raised a whopping $189,508 to benefit Children’s Place Inc; we could not be more grateful for our community’s support as we continue to do our best work for children and families in our area!

“The Reserve Club at Woodside hosted a large crowd Friday night for a late summer fundraiser titled Making a Splash for Charity. The event supported two local groups: Children’s Place Inc. and Aiken Equine Rescue.”
Now that we are a few months into 2023, it’s time that we announce the grand total for Guardian Angel 2022: $154,000+!
We are so grateful for each and every community partner and friend that helped along the way. All of the children that we serve received their much-needed warm clothing items, and the funds will continue to equip our therapeutic childcare program with supplies for this year!
