SUMMARY:Open Your Purse For Change
DESCRIPTION:  \nMCWC has proudly served Montgomery County and its surrounding communities for more than 40 years. We specialize in providing survivors a complete continuum of services and empowering them as they courageously embark on their healing journeys. \nThis popular event is the MCWC’s largest annual fundraiser. The elegant event features a silent auction of new or gently-loved handbags along with other designer items. The event meant to raise awareness about the agency and the impact it’s services has on the lives of victims also features an inspirational speaker who shares a testimonial about surviving domestic and/or sexual abuse. \nOur Event Chair\, Ally Seder\, explaining her WHY. \nBefore I joined the board\, I wanted to learn more about the organization so I asked if I could tour the shelter. I was really impressed\,” Seder said of the center. She hadn’t expected it to be an uplifting place filled with hope. One of the stops on the tour was the center’s store\, where shelter residents and their children can receive new clothes and shoes — things that they may have left behind when fleeing a dangerous situation. \nWhen I thought about that\, I clutched my purse. I couldn’t imagine leaving (like that). From that\, an idea was born. We started collecting handbags and having new ones donated to begin the event and to raise money for the center. By opening our hearts and supporting Open Your Purse for Change\, together we are helping the Women’s Center continue to be a literal lifeline to victims of domestic violence. \nWe are thrilled to be hosting Open Your Purse for the 12th year. \nWe encourage ladies in the community to go in their closets and see if they donate one or more of their fabulous purses to our auction. Table purchases\, sponsorships\, and tickets will be available soon. We anticipate another sold-out crowd this year\, so those who are interested are encouraged to secure their attendance early. \nBy opening our hearts and supporting Open Your Purse for Change\, together we are helping the Women’s Center continue to be a literal lifeline to victims of domestic violence. \n  \nTABLE SPONSORSHIPS NOW AVAILABLE: igfn.us/form/OK5BZQ

SUMMARY:Flowers On The Lake- Community Event
DESCRIPTION:Join Us in Honoring Survivors & Remembering Victims – Flowers on the Lake 2025 \nOn Tuesday\, October 14\, 2025\, our community will come together for one of the most meaningful evenings of the year—Flowers on the Lake. This isn’t just an event. It’s a night where remembrance meets action\, where hope takes root\, and where our shared commitment to end domestic violence shines. \nEach year\, we release hundreds of purple carnations into the water—this year\, 2\,025 blooms will float gently across the lake\, each one carrying a story of survival or a memory of a life lost too soon. The ripples carry more than petals; they carry our community’s promise to stand with survivors and to remember those who are no longer with us. \nOne survivor shared: \n\n“I remember standing on the shore last year\, clutching a flower in my hand. For the first time in a long time\, I felt seen. I wasn’t just a statistic. I was part of a community that cared.” \n\nThat’s the power of this night. It’s a moment for us—as partners\, advocates\, and neighbors—to show up\, to listen\, and to renew our vow: no one faces this alone. \nWe would be honored if you would join us—and bring a friend\, a colleague\, or someone who needs to witness this moment of unity. \n\n🌸 2\,025 Flowers. 2\,025 Stories. 💜 \nEvery flower released at Flowers on the Lake represents a story. Some are stories of survival. Others\, of loss. All are reminders of why we gather. \nOne first responder shared after last year’s ceremony: “We respond to the calls\, but we rarely see the healing. That night\, watching the flowers spread across the lake\, I understood the power of community to carry survivors forward.” \nOn October 14\, 2025\, join us as we release 2\,025 carnations in honor of survivors and victims of domestic violence. \n

SUMMARY:Grocery Gift Card Donation Drive
