DALLAS, July 11, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Adolfson
& Peterson Construction (AP) will serve as a Presenting Sponsor
at this year's Aim for Advocacy, an event that raises over
$200,000 each year in support of the
Dallas Children's Advocacy Center (DCAC). The event, held
Friday, August 23, offers a friendly
and challenging 8-station clay-shooting tournament which raises
money to assist DCAC's mission of providing hope and healing for
the most severely abused children in Dallas County. As the only agency of its kind
in Dallas County, DCAC coordinates
local and state agencies that investigate and prosecute crimes
against children, and at the same time provides comprehensive
therapy and family services to the children and families affected
by trauma.
AP's Gulf States Regional President, Corbett Nichter, is an
original founding member of Aim for Advocacy along with
John Slates of Slates Harwell, LLP.
Having served multiple terms on the Board of Trustees for the
organization and now currently serving on the organization's
Advisory Council, Corbett is proud to continue his support for an
organization that benefits the community so well.
"Touring the old Swiss Avenue facility in 2007 with my
Leadership Dallas class and seeing how much the organization
positively affected the lives of children was so humbling for me,"
states Corbett Nichter. "We had to get involved and stay involved
as they positively change the futures of so many children."
In addition, AP was recently selected to complete renovations of
DCAC's facility. Designed by Corgan, renovations include updates to
offices, meeting rooms and interview areas in order to help
modernize and better facilitate the building for DCAC's clients and
team members. DCAC has also been a benefactor of AP's charity golf
classic in the past and the AP team is now proud to be a partner in
DCAC's efforts to better their facility in order to assist children
who have been abused or witnessed a violent crime.
Hosted at Dallas Gun Club and just in time for dove season, the
event also offers sponsors and their teams a catered lunch, a
raffle of luxury recreational items, and a live auction of
once-in-a-lifetime experience packages for fishers and hunters. The
event engages sporting and outdoor enthusiasts in our mission to
provide justice and restore hope for the most severely abused
children in Dallas County.
