YWCA event is Nov. 12
To the editor:
Join us Saturday, Nov. 12 from 6. to 10:30 p.m. at Willow Ridge, for a night of fun and to support a very worthy nonprofit, the YWCA.
Our Silver Showcase Gala will have Live Music with the Jazz Duo: Gabriel Alves & Kelly Weber. Tickets $20 per person (may be purchased at the YWCA by calling 573-3931, ext 214, or from any board member). Casual/holiday attire is welcomed.
We will have a silent auction starting at 6 p.m. and the live auction begins at 7:30 p.m. Many businesses have generously donated items and money to our fundraiser. We truly appreciate each and every donation that has been contributed.
The YWCA is a residential substance abuse treatment facility for women and their children. We also provide outpatient services and shelter for the homeless. We currently average 32 women and 12 children who call our facility “home” on a typical day/night at the YWCA.
The need has never been greater for people to get the support they need to live alcohol- and drug-free lives as they become productive citizens, as well as successful parents to their children.
We promise you a very enjoyable evening and the satisfaction of knowing that your contribution will truly yield a great return on your investment. We are getting great results.
Come join in the celebration of lives transformed as we look forward to continuing to help people in 2017 and beyond.
