Night of Warm Hearts

Night of Warm Hearts Gala 2018: Warming Homes for our Future

 

Our goal for the Week of Warmth to raise $1 million dollars so children in Michigan can spend the winter in warm homes. This year’s theme is Warming Homes for our Future. Can you imagine a child in a cold, dark home? They can’t do their homework, eat a hot meal, or take a warm bath. Keeping the heat and lights on is critical to their success.

The Night of Warm Hearts Gala is an evening of celebration supporting this goal. Guests will enjoy an elegant dinner, live entertainment, dancing, live and silent auctions, raffles, and much more! Join us on Friday, November 9, 2018 to give Michigan children, our future, a chance to grow up in safe and warm homes.
