First annual Foster Closet gala a success
Co-chairs Mae Skoglund and Jayne McLeod with Foster Closet Co-Founder Tammy McGuire and Alice Wilson

There was no question the 1st Annual Fostering the Light of Hope gala to benefit Foster Closet was an overwhelming success. Approximately 160 guests attended the event, which was held at the Jacksonville Marriott, Feb. 29.  Co-chairing the event were Jayne McLeod and Mae Skoglund. Former Jaguar Greg Huntington joined Staci Spanos of WJXT as emcees for the occasion, which included dinner, dancing to the band, Who Rescued Who, a silent auction and live auction “paddle race,” to raise cash to fill the needs of children aging out of foster care. During the event, foster children modeled attire from Foster Closet, a nonprofit founded by John and Tammy McGuire to assist foster families with much needed supplies.
