2026 No Child Alone Dinner
January 18, 2026
Help us celebrate 50 years of Rossbrook House!
Rossbrook House Foundation is hosting the No Child Alone Dinner
on Thursday, April...
Happy 50th Birthday Rossbrook House! It is an absolute joy to celebrate you. I have a treasure chest of fond memories of you which I call upon so very often.
I began my Rossbrook House experience as a volunteer working the 5:00 pm to midnight shift on Friday nights. That’s when I was won over by the attenders, the staff and the place itself. Stories echoed from within the walls.
One of the memories that touched me the most is a simple one of the staff coming up the front stairs and yelling out ‘van ride’!!! and the kids getting in for a ride around town and eventually a ride home. These young people were to become my mentors and friends giving voice to what I was sensing was held hallowed in the walls. Stories of challenge and strength, loss and possibility.
When a teaching position came available at Eagles’ Circle school, I was thrilled to now be a part of the teaching team at this junior high school on site. My time here was beyond special. The relationships and bonds deepened and broadened. While I was there to teach, I was taught.
The many years at Rossbrook House shaped me and opened me. No matter what life holds or where it takes me, my heart is always filled with the faces and stories of insight and strength of the kids, the presence of the extended community of support and all that is woven in the heart of this place.
-Maria Vigna, former teacher/Executive Co-Director

The Leadership program is running for both groups. The participants in the Intermediate program have been doing volunteer work and learning to cook in the kitchen. They also enjoyed a fun arcade outing recently!

The top points-getters during the Winter Games receive certificates and medals! Rossbrook House is grateful to Play All Awards for providing the medallions, free of charge, for the Winter and Summer Games for YEARS! Thank you, Sherry, at Play All Awards for being so generous.
Recently Sherry mentioned that she used to work in a medical office near Rossbrook House, before joining her father in the family business full-time, and she met many children who told her about Rossbrook House and what they liked about attending. So, she has known about us for years… and has been a big-hearted supporter!

Last Friday, Rossbrook House Foundation held the second annual Show Your Heart Radiothon. So many generous donors showed their hearts and raised funds for programs and activities for the children and youth who drop in to Rossbrook House.
Every day, up to 80 participants make their way to Rossbrook House to find their friends, have a meal, and take part in programs. Donor support is an important part of helping Rossbrook House keep its doors open 365 days a year.
THANK YOU!
