Annual Fundraiser

DCDC is a nonprofit organization supported by public and private contributions, as well as our annual fundraiser, the DCDC Gala. This evening social-style event brings the community together to network, enjoy food and drinks, hear exciting development updates, and participate in both silent and live auctions.

The event raises essential funds that allow the Development Corporation to continue its work in Decatur County. During the evening, we also recognize graduates of the Decatur County Leadership program and honor our Business of the Year.
