Making a Difference: Friends of JJ Award

Our hearts are full of gratitude as we reflect on the incredible impact of our 2021 Toy Drive. We were truly honored to be recognized by Friends of JJ, Inc. with a “Making a Difference” award for our continued support of their mission to bring smiles to children in local hospitals.

This recognition belongs to our amazing couples and communities at Clarks Landing Yacht Club, The Mill Lakeside Manor, and The Bradford Estate—because it’s your generosity that makes this possible year after year. Through your support at alumni gatherings, wedding events, and toy drop-off initiatives, you’ve helped us spread joy to children and families who need it most.

In 2021 alone, over 400 toys were collected and donated to local hospitals and families, bringing comfort and happiness to young patients during treatments, recoveries, and challenging times.

Friends of JJ, Inc. is dedicated to supporting the well-being of pediatric patients and honoring JJ’s memory by delivering smiles and hope when children need them most. We are proud to stand alongside them in this mission and deeply grateful to everyone who continues to help us make a difference—one toy, one smile, and one act of kindness at a time.

At Beau Truesdale Wedding Venues, giving back is at the heart of everything we do. Together with our couples, families, and communities, we’re creating moments of joy that extend far beyond the wedding day.
