At its annual awards gala held last month in New York, Credico raised $9,250 for Children’s Home + Aid. The annual awards gala was a black tie event that featured a silent auction and casino night where attendees were encouraged to participate for charity.
A portion of the proceeds from the silent auction and casino winnings benefited Children’s Home + Aid of Chicago, a leading child and family service agency dedicated to ending violence and creating a more just and caring world for children, youth and families.
“We are incredibly grateful for the support Credico generated at this year’s fabulous gala,” said Nancy Ronquillo, president and CEO of Children’s Home + Aid. “Credico’s partnership and generosity will make a real difference in the lives of children here in Illinois, giving our families hope, opportunity and bright futures.”
Between speakers and awards, guests bid on a plethora of items ranging from consumer electronics to extravagant destination trips and spa packages. The casino portion of the evening featured blackjack and roulette tables where attendees used Children’s Home + Aid themed dollars for betting.
Each year the Credico awards gala recognizes industry leaders and top performers from the company’s outsourced supplier network for their entrepreneurial achievements in direct sales. This was the first year Credico North America hosted more than 500 invitation-only guests at the historic 583 Park Avenue building on the Upper East Side.
“We are proud to donate to such a worthy cause and have Children’s Home + Aid as one of this year’s chosen charities for our awards gala,” said Jesse Young, president of Credico North America.
