LOVE AND GRATITUDE
Dear Be Alright Friends and Family,
Since 2009, you have been painting, packing backpacks, carrying sofas, singing with families, decorating holiday parties, putting together gifts for mothers, buying coats and filling up donation boxes with warm winter clothing. You have also provided tremendous financial and emotional support to our nonprofit in ways that have left us speechless and deeply humbled. Because of you, we are now regularly supporting over 200 children and teenagers with new school supplies every year so they are ready for their first day of school. And because of you, our dreams to support survivors of domestic violence is expanding in extraordinary ways!
Please join us on Sunday, May 6th at the Hideout for our first ever, "Love and Gratitude" event from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Doors open at 4:30 p.m. We will start our celebration with a 60 minute yoga practice followed by some delicious food (vegetarian options included) and some surprise goodies! We are looking forward to thanking each of you and sharing our plans for a Wellness Van that will travel to local area DV shelters providing integrative healthcare services to families surviving domestic violence!
We hope to see you all in May!
Great Love,
Sonia and the Be Alright Board
P.S. We really could not decide if we wanted to throw a fundraiser for a wellness van or a thank you party for all of our amazing supporters so we decided to do a combo of them both!! Only 50 tickets are available so please purchase one soon. And remember to wear comfy clothes and bring your yoga mat (we will have a limited number of yoga mats to use if you need one). And thank you for your continued support!
