CCJ’s Totally Rad 25th Birthday Block Party

Sunday, OCT 18 – 12:30PM – 4:30PM
Fairweather Social Club
224 N Cortez St, Prescott, AZ

Join the Coalition for Compassion & Justice as we celebrate 25 years of compassion, housing, advocacy, second chances, and neighbors helping neighbors at our Totally Rad 25th Birthday Block Party.

This family-friendly community celebration is a chance to come together, have fun, and support the important work CCJ has been doing in our area for the past 25 years. Guests can enjoy an afternoon filled with music, food trucks, games, a cornhole tournament, a photo booth, a dunk tank, and more. The event is also pet friendly, so feel free to bring the whole crew.

Admission is $5, and kids under 5 are free. Whether you’ve supported CCJ for years or are just getting to know us, we’d love to celebrate this milestone with you while continuing to build support for affordable housing and services in our community.

Local businesses can also join the fun by participating in the Business Dunk Tank Sponsorship. For $150, sponsors can select a boss, coworker, manager, CEO, local celebrity, or other willing participant to take the plunge and receive 10 chances to dunk them. It’s a fun way to build team spirit, spark a little friendly rivalry, and support a meaningful cause while being part of CCJ’s anniversary celebration.

We offer a variety of projects to those in need in our community. Learn more about them and how they are helping.

The Coalition for Compassion and Justice (CCJ) is a non profit poverty-relief center serving Yavapai County, Arizona.

We utilize donations for our clients in need through a voucher system as well as using proceeds to support our outreach efforts.
