ACC's Big Day of Giving
THANK YOU!
On May 2nd, 2024, ACC hosted a 5 hour livestreamed telethon for the Annual Big Day of Giving. Viewers were entertained by musical talents such as Broadway star Dina Morishta, George Connor and Mary Nakamura (Asian Pair), Clementine Brass Band and so many more! Tastebuds salivated with cooking demos by Lana Chong, Jonathan and Katie of local favorite Cacio and our very own Chef Tim Hirabayashi from ACC Maple Tree Village. We heard messages from our local elected officials Supervisor Patrick Kennedy, Councilmember Rick Jennings and Assemblymember Stephanie Nguyen.
During the evenings, we showcased many of our ACC programs, services, residential communities and clubs. Honoring longtime volunteer Art Imigire and a wonderful heartfelt tribute to an ACC pioneer, Mickey Yamadera.
Big Day of Giving is a 24-hour fundraising event that supports local nonprofits in the Sacramento region. BDOG enhances community-building and collaboration among area non-profits, organized by the Sacramento Region Community Foundation with backing from partners like Western Health Advantage and generous individuals like you!
Annually, the Big Day of Giving is ACC’s largest fundraiser of the year and enables us to continue to offer many of our services and programs at low-to-no cost to our participants. From participants and volunteers with ACC Rides and Senior Escort Program, to residents of ACC Skilled Nursing and Independent Living – your donation makes a direct impact in our community!
