With ongoing help from our community, the Teen Center will have several fundraising efforts throughout the year. Except for the Irish Coffee Mixer which is already schedule, below we are showing the events from last year as we work on scheduling the 2026 events.

March:  Our friends at the Optimist Prime Service Club of Elk Grove along with Chris Opfur at Answer Home Loans will host an Irish Coffee Mixer. As they have done over the past several years, their friends throughout the local realtor and lender network, have held a mixer where the visitors bring snacks and other items of use at our Teen Center. 

May: On the first Thursday in May each year, the Teen Center joins dozens of other 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations in an annual online fundraiser called the Big Day of Giving.

June-July: We have our annual fireworks booth, selling fireworks, so that everyone has a festive and exciting Independence Day Celebration. Let’s keep in mine that America is celebrating iths 250th Anniversary. We plan to have the fireworks you want to be a part of this big celebration. 

October: We have our annual Rockin Ribs Dinner at the Lent Ranch with bar service from the Elk Grove Lions Club. We are looking to a similar partnership this fall.

November:  Last year we held our 3 day garage sale during the first week of the month. That was followed by The Dickens Fair is the big event in Old Elk Grove.  With all of the activity in Old Town Elk Grove, we open our doors to show our neighbors how we serve their teenagers.
