Tickets
Oct 23 @ 5:00 pm

Bring your entourage and get ready for an unforgettable night supporting A Step Ahead in Pierce County as we celebrate our 20th Anniversary!

Join us on Saturday October 23, 2021, for our 12th Annual Auction & Gala available both in-person and virtually. Our 2021 Theme, Casino for a Cause – An Evening of Celebration. ASAPC will be celebrating our 20 years of service while also recognizing the positive ingenuity of human resiliency demonstrated within our community during the Pandemic crisis. This will be our most inspirational party yet!

Over the course of our twenty-year history, ASAPC has served thousands of children from all over the Puget Sound region and have never turned away a child in need of services because of an inability to pay. This is made possible because of our CARES Fund, which covers the costs of uncompensated care, ensuring every child receives the necessary therapeutic support they need.

This will be a sold-out event! Register before Sept. 23rd for the Early-Bird pricing. Can’t attend? Register for the virtual event!

Pumpkin Pickers Special @ Simpson Railroad
Tickets
Oct 24 @ 10:00 am – 4:00 pm

The event starts with a ride aboard the Simpson Railroad trailer car around the loop over to the event grounds. This year events are located in our operations area to provide more space. There we will have a hay bale/straw maze to navigate thru -hopefully it is not haunted with loggers past. Grab a cup of hot cider to sip while you listen to not too scary short stories read by Area youth and literary groups. Don’t forget just before you get back on the trailer car for the short ride back stop at the pumpkin patch to pick out a pumpkin to take home. While at the activities grounds keep a sharp eye out for trick or treat candy. Kids are encouraged to wear and show off their costumes.

Don't Judge Just Serve: 3rd Annual Virtual Fundraiser @ Virtual Fundraiser

Tacoma Community House is a nationally-respected, community-based service center for immigrants, refugees, and long-time South Sound residents seeking enrichment and pathways to self-sufficiency. For 110 years, we have helped countless individuals gain the skills they need to transition out of poverty, navigate a new culture, and find personal and professional success.

Many people come to us seeking one type of service and end up utilizing others, making us one of Tacoma’s most unique “one stop shops.” Annually, we provide 3,500 program services to 3,200 individuals from over 115 countries through our four core programs: Immigration, Education, Employment and Advocacy (for crime victims).
