3rd Annual Open Your Heart for Women & Homelessness Event
Thank you to everyone who attended and donated to our third annual Women and Homelessness Event! With your help, we were able to raise almost $24,000 that will go directly towards funding case management services at AHOPE Day Center.
If you were unable to attend, please enjoy the recording of the event on the left. The event features an original song written for Homeward Bound by local artists Joe Lasher and Kaitlyn Baker. The program also includes a video of domestic violence survivor and Homeward Bound client, Bronya, and an informative panel discussion by Homeward Bound and Helpmate staff.
