It’s fundraising season for Wylie Community Christian Care Center. 

The center, which provides a food pantry and short-term emergency relief for local families, is hosting its annual fundraising breakfast at 9 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 15, at The Cross Church Event Center, located at 200 N. Ballard Ave., Wylie. 

The breakfast includes a silent auction that raises money for the nonprofit.

Check-in for the event begins at 8:30 a.m. and tickets are $25 or $20 for Wylie Chamber of Commerce members with reservations. This year’s featured speaker is Pastor Blake Switzer from Gateway Community Church.
