Week of Warmth
Warming Homes Together While Apart
THAW, celebrating 35 years of service, is partnering with DTE Energy for the Week of Warmth, which will take place November 1-6. Our Week of Warmth is capped off by the signature fundraising event of the year, the Night of Warm Hearts Gala, on November 6, sponsored by DTE Energy. Both events are virtual this year, and proceeds will enable THAW to continue providing energy assistance to Michigan’s most vulnerable citizens.
Please visit links on this site for an overview of Week of Warmth activities, sponsorship benefits, a commitment form, and auction lots. Check back for additional information as we get closer to the event.
Thank you for helping to Warm Homes Together While Apart!
