Monday night was “all-star studded” as Auberle celebrated the accomplishments of the youths, families and organizations it offers services to or partners with.
For the 33rd year in a row, the faith-based, Catholic nonprofit organization celebrated its All Star Banquet by presenting dozens of awards for academics, athletics, community service, work ethic, personal achievement, foster care excellence and artistic expression to youths and families in recognition of achievements and milestones they have made or overcome this past year.
Additionally, The Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh was named as the recipient of Auberle’s Community Partner Award.
Patrons of the event got to meet stakeholders and some of Auberle’s corporate sponsors, but also got to hear real-life stories of kids, parents, individuals and families who are succeeding thanks to the support of Auberle’s more than 20 programs.
