Cigars, Bourbon & Benefactors is, at its core, about children right here in Lincoln County. Every year, thousands of local children are victims of sexual abuse, physical abuse, neglect, trafficking, or sextortion — and many endure more than one of these crimes. These are experiences that no child should have to face, and no family should have to navigate alone. The Lincoln County Child Advocacy Center meets them with compassion and expertise, providing trauma-informed care — including forensic interviews, medical exams, and therapy — in a safe, child-friendly environment, all at no cost to families. Cigars, Bourbon & Benefactors exists to stand behind that work, giving these children and families a chance to heal, find stability, and move forward.
