Perpetuate the Hope
Rebuilding neighborhoods.
Reconnecting people.
THANK YOU for being part of the story of reclaiming hope.
This year's event was witness to one of the largest turnouts we’ve ever had. We were honored and humbled by everyone who came:
• Nearly 700 attended the breakfast and lunch—and so many were also generously driven to give!
• We received more than $250,000 in donations and pledges!
• This grand total surpassed last year’s donations by $50,000!
Thank you, again, for your presence, generosity, and for being on this journey with us.
If you missed it, you can still donate or watch the entire event by clicking the links below.
If you attended and haven't done so yet, we really want to know about your experience. Please give us your feedback in this brief, 10-question survey. Thank you!
