A Circus Blessing 5/4/2024 9:00 AM - 5/4/2024 10:00 PM

Mon, 08 Jan 2024 08:42:05 GMT

A Circus Blessing is a fundraising event created by 11 year old Kylee Zulauf to help raise funds for Blessings In A Backpack Forsyth. Blessings in a Backpack Forsyth is ran by Lambert High School students. Each week they pack meals for over 460 school age Forsyth County Students to merge the hunger gap over the weekends.

?Most kids in the Blessings in a Backpack program will never get to see a circus show or even travel to see performances. If you can't afford food, affording a day of family fun is also not in the budget. A Circus Blessing will provide every student in the Blessings in a Backpcak program a free ticket to the event. All donations and funds collected from A Circus Blessing will go directly to Blessings in a Backpack Forsyth.

With the help of Forsyth County , A Circus Blessing will truly be a circus like no other! Join us for a family day of fun, spectacular shows, amazing activities, vendors, food trucks, and more... all while helping the kids of Forsyth County!
