A Mother's Courage, A Child's Future
On May 9, 2008, New Beginnings and friends celebrated Mother’s Day weekend by honoring survivors of domestic violence.
In raising essential funds for New Beginnings’ programs, board members, volunteers and over 350 attendees, contributed to yet another successful Gala Auction.
We extend our grateful thanks to all of you who helped make this annual event so successful. Together, we raised more than $290,000 for New Beginnings' mission and services!
