The Annual Ad Relief November Luncheon
This industry luncheon is very special in that it brings everyone together for a moment in time to celebrate our business partnerships, but more importantly our friendships. It is also happens to be one of Ad Relief’s largest fundraisers of the year which benefits our Advertising Community in times of life crisis. Never has there been a more critical time to fundraise, as many of our colleagues have been severely impacted by the pandemic.
If you would like to support your very own Advertising Community, visit adrelief.org/donate to make your charitable contribution.
