About the Event
Excitement is in the air! Get ready to be part of something extraordinary at Metro West Community Development Organization's (MWCDO) fundraising event. It's an event like no other, and we want you to be there!
Step back in time to the cool cats and bobby socks of the 1950s for an unforgettable night benefitting MWCDO. Break out your poodle skirts, slick back your hair, and channel your inner James Dean for an evening of toe-tapping fun, delicious eats, and pure nostalgic charm. Show off your moves in our dance competition, test your hula hoop skills, and challenge your friends at the pinball machines — then wind down with a fine cigar while reminiscing about a truly swingin' era. Indulge in classic 50s fare and sweet nostalgic candy, enter your raffle tickets for exclusive prizes, and soak in the ambiance of the most iconic decade in American history — all while supporting MWCDO's vital work in enhancing Cleveland's neighborhoods. Don't miss your chance to be part of this rockin', charitable night!
Thank you for supporting our mission — your support is invaluable. Together, we can create a brighter, more compassionate world for all!
