The 9th Annual Burgers and Cheers, a signature event organized by Child Advocacy Center’s Young Advocates Council, raises funds to support the agency’s highly-specialized services that meet the needs of children experiencing abuse. In 2018, 1,619 children from a 16-county area were served by Child Advocacy Center. This year, the event is being sponsored by VOLT Credit Union and will be held, Saturday, April 27, from 4-8:30 pm at Ebbets Field restaurant, 1027 East Walnut, Springfield.
