Clark, along with the support of the Davis and Clark families, following his passing in 2024. In the wake of their loss, they were driven to honor his legacy by raising awareness and providing support for mental health challenges faced by first responders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event aims to generate funds for organizations that assist individuals and families&nbsp;before, during, and after a mental health crisis, ensuring critical support systems are available when they are needed most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in an exciting night featuring&nbsp;over $7,000 in prizes&nbsp;and multiple ways to win throughout the evening. With&nbsp;only 300 tickets available, early purchase is strongly encouraged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tickets can be purchased by contacting&nbsp;Cassondra Clark at 567.259.8227. Community members and businesses are also encouraged to contribute, as&nbsp;donations are still being accepted&nbsp;to support this important cause.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VW independent staff\/submitted information DELPHOS &#8212; The community is invited to come together for a meaningful evening of support, remembrance, and impact at the upcoming ARC fundraising event, taking place on&nbsp;Saturday, May 2, at the&nbsp;Delphos Eagles.
