Archway Housing Celebrates Holidays with Annie
Archway Housing & Services (formerly Rocky Mountain HDC) drew a large crowd for a fundraiser featuring a production of the musical “Annie” at the Littleton Town Hall Arts Center, December 4. Despite record-setting bitter cold single digit temperatures more than 125 guests attended the performance including donors, partners, business owners, teachers, and various families from Archway communities and those who have supported our organization over the years.
The event was held at the Littleton Town Hall Arts Center, a 94-year-old building listed on the National Register of Historic Buildings. Proceeds support the Archway Housing & Services Family Services Program.
Archway provides youth and adult services that include an after-school and summer program as well as career development and professional referrals, Archway Housing & Services Family Services Department is working to change the lives of their residents.
Archway’s Executive Director Joyce Alms-Ransford greeted visitors throughout the frigid night. Some 30 or so residents, including families and youth from the Arapahoe Green Townhomes, braved the cold and arrived just in time to catch the show. Relish Catering provided a nice smorgasbord of dinner items to satisfy a diverse crowd.
Archway Board Chair Rob Lapp met with supporters and mingled with guests, along with board members David Nestor and Mary Anderies. Staff members Teresa Vaughn, Catherine Datuin, Yvonne Monson, Joyce Modrak and staff and board from Town Hall Center helped with ticketing, ushering and with open bar sales.
