Mothers' Day Dance & Silent Auction 2008 is over!
A big thank you to everyone who helped us SELL OUT this year. Together we raised $24,550 so far!

Many thanks to our sponsors, community and families who make this meaningful initiative and party of the year possible. Together, we’ve sent over $85,000 to support Ethiopian women and girls, helping them build an independent, sustainable future.
