A Month of Festive Fun and Giving Back with the Associates Board

Posted on December 27, 2024 View all news

Our Associates Board spent a meaningful weekend with Sarah’s Circle, combining fun, fundraising, and hands-on service to support our mission. The weekend kicked off with our largest-ever “Sweaters” event at Lincoln Tap, where attendees wore their ugliest holiday sweaters and mingled, participated in raffles, and enjoyed delicious food and drinks. The event was a festive celebration of community, and thanks to the generosity of all who attended, it was our most successful Sweaters event to date, and we raised over $2,600!

But the giving didn’t stop there. The Associates Board also volunteered their time in the kitchen, cooking and serving meals to our Interim Housing clients. Their dedication to both fundraising and direct service made for a truly impactful weekend.

Our Associates Board also played a pivotal role in our coat giveaway in November. Thanks to a generous donation of winter gear from the Reva and David Logan Foundation, we were able to distribute coats, hoodies, hats, gloves, boots, and scarves to hundreds of women in need. 

We are incredibly grateful to our AB for their support and hard work. Their efforts help us continue providing essential services to women experiencing homelessness, and we look forward to even more collaborations in the future. Thank you for making a difference in the lives of those we serve!
