HAD banner

Thanks so much to everyone who made our 12th Annual Hope Awards Dinner on Tuesday such a great success! It was an awesome evening of great food and drinks, amazing silent auction items and packages, an exhilarating live auction that won’t soon be forgotten, inspiring speeches by Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton and Calvary programs graduate Sandra – all emceed by the talented JC Hayward and brought to life by the energy and love that filled the room!

Two fantastic videos were premiered at the event – a thank you to everyone who helped make our Good Hope Road expansion possible, and a slideshow of all the work that went into transforming that space from an abandoned building into a safe, caring place for tonight; support, hope and change for tomorrow.

Also, be sure to check out photos from the event on our Facebook page and Flickr – as well as on Bisnow.

Thanks again for making this event such a great success!
