PARTNER APPRECIATION LUNCHEON
Every spring, Columbia County Community Connections proudly hosts the Partner Appreciation Luncheon to celebrate the incredible organizations, businesses, and individuals who make this work possible. This special event brings together a room full of dedicated advocates, passionate supporters, and committed partners—all united by a shared mission to uplift and empower local youth.
2025
This year, we embraced the theme of Superheroes, because that’s exactly what our partners are—real-life heroes fighting for the success and well-being of our youth. Surrounded by a room full of champions, protectors, and everyday heroes, we were reminded that true strength lies in compassion, dedication, and community support.
2024
For our 2024 Luncheon, we embraced the theme of The Circus, because without our incredible partners, we would be a circus! Surrounded by a room full of ringmasters, tightrope walkers, and behind-the-scenes champions, we were reminded that it takes balance, coordination, and unwavering dedication to keep our mission running smoothly.
2023
In 2023, we sprinkled in some fun with a doughnut-themed Partner Appreciation Luncheon, because “We Dough-Not Know What We Would Do Without You!” Just like doughnut holes complete the treat, our incredible partners are the missing pieces that make our mission whole. Their support fills the gaps, ensuring that every child and family in our community has the resources they need to thrive.
