A Circus Blessing 4/26/2025 - 4/27/2025

Fri, 24 Jan 2025 12:05:11 GMT

A Circus Blessing is a fundraising event created Kylee Zulauf at 11 years old to help raise funds for Blessings in a Backpack Forsyth. Blessings in a Backpack Forsyth is ran by Lambert High School students. Each week they pack meals for approximately 520 school age Forsyth County Students to merge the hunger gap over the weekends.

Kylee was 10 when she began her circus journey and saw her very 1st circus show. She was dissapointed when she found out how much circus tickets cost. She knew that most kids in the Blessings in a Backpack program will never get to see the one thing that she loves the most. For some of the kids, affording a day of family fun is just not in the budget. A Circus Blessing is open to everyone, but proudly provides every student in the Blessings in a Backpack program a free ticket to the event. All donations and funds collected from A Circus Blessing will go directly to Blessings in a Backpack Forsyth.

?With your help, A Circus Blessing will truly be like no other! Join us for a family day of fun, spectacular shows, amazing activities and more... all while helping the kids of Forsyth County!
