Andy Richter of Conan served as host of the dinner and a special performance by Keb' Mo' was a highlight of the evening. Christian Kolberg led the entertaining and successful live auction, raising over $200,000 from the once-in-a-lifetime auction packages and college sponsorships. Thank you to all the generous auction bidders!.
"I've seen first-hand just how important the types of services provided by UFC are in supporting foster children, young people and their families, and I am honored to be a part of the Brass Ring Awards Dinner."
Phil Kent, Brass Ring Honoree
UFC College Sponsorship Recipient Courtney Nash and Pathways Program Participant Tanya Hooper provided a glimpse into their lives growing up in foster care and what UFC means to them.
"There is a level of trust that so many foster youth, including myself, have with UFC. The reality of most foster kids is constantly moving from foster home to foster home, and UFC often is that one bit of stability in the midst of the chaos.."
Courtney Nash, College Sponsorship Recipient
Thank you to everyone involved in making the Brass Ring Awards Dinner a huge success!
