Champion for Children Celebration

May 21, 2008 – Kernwood Country Club, Salem, Massachusetts

Richard E. Holbrook Honored as Champion for Children

Our 2008 Champion for Children Celebration was, by all accounts, deemed to be another great success! Our honored guest, Richard Holbrook, CEO of Eastern Bank, graciously accepted his recognition as this year’s Children’s Friend Champion for Children, and a very large audience of friends, co-workers as well as colleagues were on hand to offer their congratulations and well wishes.

Some 22 sponsors and donors insured the financial strength of the evening with the proceeds being used to support an array of current Children’s Friend services to over 4,500 clients.

THANK YOU to our sponsors! With the generous support from corporate sponsors, Children’s Friend and Family Services was able to raise over $50,000 for the organization and the children and families we serve.
