I'm beaming with gratitude for each and every one of you. However you contributed to our gala - whether it was attending, making a donation, purchasing a raffle ticket, amplifying our cause on social media, or telling a friend about our work, your support contributed to us surpassing our fundraising goal and raising over $90,000.
You joined us from as far as California, Louisiana and Philadelphia to support our mission and members.
Very often, we, as previously incarcerated women and gender-expansive people are often marginalized, isolated and unwelcome in spaces where, if allowed, we make THE positive impact.
New Hour continues to provide this space in which justice-impacted people can not only feel safe, but be accepted, seen and heard. The love was there and was felt deeply by all of us.
