Craig's Cares for Ability Beyond Disability

On Thursday, November 17th from 4 pm to 8 pm, Craig's Fine Jewelry will be hosting a fundraiser for Ability Beyond Disability, the fifth in a series of local fundraisers called Craig’s CARES. Along with all of our jewelry, four outstanding jewelry designers, Doves, Color Masters, Meira T and Susan Michel, will be having Trunk Shows with specialty pieces not always found at Craig’s. The Benziger Family Winery will be hosting a wine tasting, and Ancona’s Market will be providing delicious bites. 

Ability Beyond Disability is a not for profit organization that was founded in 1953 by a group of parents who wanted a better life for their children with disabilities. Today, they help over 1700 people with disabilities each year to build a better life- providing homes, delivering supports, offering job training and assistance in finding work – and above all teaching every person the skills needed to achieve their dreams.

Ability Beyond Disability will receive 20% of all sales, along with a $2,000 donation from Craig’s. Customers will have the option of donating the 20% directly to Ability Beyond Disability (by check), or Craig’s will make the donation. All sales are final.

Craig’s CARES is a series of fundraisers that Craig’s Fine Jewelry is hosting for several local organizations and national charities.   Each will receive 20% of the evening’s sales, and a donation from Craig’s.  Additionally, Craig’s Cares for Tiger Hollow Stadium will be on Thursday. December 8^th.

Previous events, benefiting the Ridgefield Playhouse, the Ridgefield Boys and Girls Club, ROAR and Praxair Cancer Center, raised over $25,000 for these wonderful organizations.

All events are from 4 pm to 8 pm at Craig’s Fine Jewelry, 394 Main Street, Ridgefield, CT.
