More than 200 local businesswomen and community members were in attendance. Through auctions, wine pulls and sponsors, Hope through Housing Foundation boosted giving by $10,000 over its 2022 event.
All proceeds benefit the Building Bright Futures initiative that funds after-school programming, literacy supplies, STEM projects, school supplies and much more.
“These funds will help us better serve the kids in our communities,” Hope through Housing Director of Development Alyssa Cotter said. “It’s wonderful to see what we can accomplish when we all come together for a common cause.” Women of Hope are champions for Building Bright Futures work focused on literacy, after-school programs and scholarships, making a difference for local children in need.
