Mad Anthonys Children’s Foundation announces cancellation of 2020 Charity Classic and Red Coat Dinner

(May 8, 2020) — Given the continued uncertainty around COVID-19 and the guidelines laid out in Governor Holcomb’s Back on Track plan, the Mad Anthonys Children’s Foundation has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Charity Classic and Red Coat Dinner, which were scheduled for June 14-15.

“This was obviously not an easy decision, but we believe it is the right one out of respect for our community’s health and safety – as well as because of the uncertainty we expect to continue into June,” said Sherri Miller, president of the Mad Anthonys board of directors. “While we won’t have the Charity Classic or Red Coat Dinner this year, our hope and plan is to still be able to present a gift of support to the Mad Anthonys Children’s Hope House for 2020. And we definitely look forward to putting on a grand event in 2021.”

To date, the Mad Anthonys Children’s Foundation has donated more than $5 million to the Children’s Hope House since the start of its partnership.
