This support is a lifeline, offering a path to safety, healing, and independence for those who have faced unimaginable hardship.

The success of the event underscores the community’s commitment to standing in solidarity with survivors.

“Our community’s support is nothing short of inspiring,” said Colleen Rice, Executive Director. “Every dollar raised represents hope, safety, and the chance for survivors to rebuild their lives.

“We are deeply grateful for everyone who came together to make this event possible. Your compassion ensures survivors know they are not alone.”
