Mother’s Day Brunch Delivers Hope Beyond Measure

Nearly 700 women attended this year's Mother's Day Brunch on April 27. Sponors provided 85 gift baskets, which when auctioned off, raised more than $40,000 for marginalized families in southeast Michigan. This year's event theme, "Hope Beyond Measure," highlighted the work of our BOOST Vocational Training Program, which trains local women in literacy, sewing, and culinary arts.  Gorgeous potholder favors were created by our sewing students, and our Culinary Kitchen made nearly 700 almond biscotti for our guests. Our BOOST Marketplace Booth sold over $500 worth of handcrafted items, with all funds going directly to the student who created each masterpiece.
