Calendar of Events

In partnership with Sidewalk Angels Foundation, we invite you to Rock the House for Animals, a livestream concert to help support critical work for all animals, including help for pets and their people who are impacted by COVID-19.

Rob Thomas, along with Chris Daughtry and Gavin DeGraw, will perform live from their homes for a special evening benefiting animals across the country. Before the show begins, please join us for an exclusive look at how heroes are helping animals nationwide.

This exciting event will be streaming live on Facebook, Youtube, and Twitch. We hope you’ll join us!

We invite young LEAFers to join LEAF Resident Teaching Artist Adama Dembele for a virtual drumming and dance class for elementary age kids. Adama is a master djembefola (djembe player) from the Ivory Coast, West Africa, and has been a part of LEAF since 2005. He currently teaches year round after school classes with LEAF Schools & Streets, and he is excited to offer video classes in which students can take a journey to explore the sounds, rhythms and movements of West African culture right from their own home!

Join Irene Wortham Center’s 20th annual golf tournament fundraiser! As a non-profit, this annual event helps us continue serving the Buncombe County community. For 57 years and counting, we have been helping children and adults with developmental and/or socioeconomic challenges live more independent, happy, healthy, and full lives. Funds raised at this event will kick-start the building project for a new Early Learning Center. The current center, which is one of two organizations in Buncombe County helping pre-K children with developmental disabilities, enrolls 100 children and has a wait list of more than 400! We need YOUR support to expand our program and offer services to more children and families in need.
Please consider registering as a player, a sponsor, or making a donation toward the cause. The day will be full of golf, great food, cold beer, and lots of prizes and giveaways! Visit the event website to learn more and register!
