CCJ Hosts Successful 50/50 Raffle at Market Tap
The Center for Civil Justice recently held another successful 50/50 Raffle at the Market Tap, and we are so grateful to everyone who came out, joined us, and purchased tickets in support of our mission!

It was a wonderful evening filled with great company, music, and support for the important work CCJ does to fight poverty through advocacy.

Thank you to everyone who attended and helped make the evening a success. Your support makes a difference and helps CCJ continue fighting for seniors, children, people with disabilities, and working families.
