REACH Child Placing Agency (REACH) will host their 6th Annual Casino Night on Friday, March 21, 2025 at The Establishment Barn in Terrell, Texas. REACH is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that serves and cares for abused and/or neglected children in crisis in Kaufman County.

The REACH Casino Night event is an evening full of fun and networking that features a live DJ, casino games and raffle drawings throughout the evening for more than 50 items -- designer handbags for the ladies (Louis Vuitton, Michael Kors, Coach, Kate Spade & Mark Jacobs) and for the men, Smith & Wesson, Springfield, Tarus, Beretta, Sig Sauer, Remington & more. There will also be two grand prize raffle drawings for a Louis Vuitton handbag and Aero Precision Rifle.

“You may not be able to open your home to foster or adopt, but you can help to support those that do,” said Tammy Pargoud, REACH’s founder and CEO. “We rely upon and appreciate the support of local businesses and the Kaufman County community that allows us to serve the children in our care and others in crisis.”

REACH currently has 54 children placed in loving foster homes in Kaufman County. In the last two years, 30 of the children who were placed by REACH have found their forever home through adoption by foster families.

All proceeds from casino night go to support the children and families REACH serves in our community. Tickets are $100 each or 2 for $150. Tickets include heavy hors d’oeuvres, open bar, and $1,000 in casino cash. You can purchase tickets online or Terrell Chamber of Commerce, Hickory Roots, Courtney Wortham Law Office and Whisked Away Bake House.
