Since 2012, CCI/Speer has sponsored and participated in the community's annual “Festival of Trees” gala.
Each year, employees collaborate to design a tree and curate a collection of items to auction off at the annual event, benefiting Tristate Health.
CCI/Speer employees, Kendra Mooers, Michelle Garrison, and Heather Marshall created a “Puttin on the Glitz” themed tree that featured white, silver, green, gold, velvet, and crystal ornaments, raising $8,700!
Contributions to the Festival of Trees event enable the foundation to support the hospital in providing new equipment, facilities, community programs and services that might not otherwise be funded.
2023 was a record year for the 39th Annual Festival, with over $320,000 raised to support this mission. See a video describing the tree and collection of gifts.
