The Carousel Child Advocacy Center: Beer & Wine Festival for a Cause
In just the last 5 years, the Carousel Center has seen more an average of 450 children a year between the ages of birth and 17 from New Hanover, Brunswick, and Pender counties. Most of these children have been referred to them by local law enforcement, or the County’s Department of Social Services. Since their doors opened in January of 2000 they have provided Certified Medical Exams to well over 5,000 children and have facilitated over 10,000 child trauma therapy sessions.

Spend the day for a cause! The Lighthouse Beer and Wine Festival has become integral to the Carousel Child Advocacy Center’s yearly budget. This festival helps the center to continue to help those in need in our surrounding counties and cities.
