The Rotary Club of Hattiesburg will host “A Night in Italy,” an annual fundraiser benefitting The Children's Center for Communication and Development at The University of Southern Mississippi, on Tuesday, May 3 at Southern Oaks House & Gardens.

“This is our 12th year to collaborate with Rotary, and we couldn't be more thankful for their commitment to supporting our work in South Mississippi,” said Children's Center Director Sarah Case-Price. “Our families, staff and advisory board members enjoy working closely with Rotary to make sure this event is a highlight for the Hattiesburg community each year.”

For $12 all guests receive a dinner inclusive of spaghetti, salad, bread, dessert and tea. Guests can choose to dine in or carry out.

Tickets can be purchased through The Children's Center (located in the J.B. George Building on Fraternity Drive in Hattiesburg), members of Rotary Club of Hattiesburg or at the door.

As a United Way agency, The Children's Center opened its doors in 1974. Since that time, the Center has provided direct comprehensive early intervention services to infants, toddlers and preschoolers with complex communication and development disabilities.
