Nourishing Hope

🙌 Happy #FlashbackFriday! We had an absolute blast in September with our friends at the Nourishing Hope Gala. Thanks to the generous support of our guests, volunteers, and sponsors, we raised a 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱-𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 $𝟭.𝟭 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 for Nourishing Hope! These funds are directly supporting our food programs, free mental health counseling, and social services. Check out our party pics! We can’t say enough about how grateful we are to our sponsors. This fun evening would not have been possible without them. Thank you! Check out our gala page for more photos and fun! https://lnkd.in/eGSXBzAZ
