At Friendship Home, we believe that every survivor of domestic violence deserves safety, dignity, and a future filled with hope. This October, during Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we are launching Illuminate: Hope Shines Here, a new gala that brings our community together to shine a light on the journey from fear to freedom.
This event was created not just to raise funds, but to raise awareness, because every ticket purchased, every auction bid, and every dollar donated fuels critical services for survivors and their families.
Your support helps us provide:
-
Safe shelter and support for survivors, children, and their pets, ensuring no one is left behind in dangerous situations.
-
Therapeutic resources and advocacy to help children heal from trauma.
-
Emergency services and ongoing care that empower survivors to rebuild their lives with strength and stability.
-
Pet-friendly spaces so survivors don’t have to choose between their safety and the animals they love.
Domestic violence impacts entire families, and healing starts when we wrap survivors in safety and community.
By attending Illuminate, you’re not just enjoying a beautiful evening; you’re taking a stand. You’re telling survivors: You are not alone. You are seen. You are supported.
Join us for an evening of light, love, and life-changing impact.
