On November 8, the First Step - You Are The Light Gala was held at Laurel Manor, raising funds for a very worthy but heartbreaking purpose: to support and raise awareness of survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.
We are proud that some team members were in attendance and grateful for the opportunity to sponsor such an invaluable event.
First Step, whose mission is to eliminate domestic and sexual violence and provide services to those impacted by these awful crimes, created an immersive and impactful experience for those who attended. Those present could participate in a silent auction, wine pull, 50/50 raffle, and moving speeches from survivors, all of which helped raise essential funds for the First Step Domestic Violence & Sexual Violence Shelter.
We truly are honored to have had the opportunity to support such an important cause, and we encourage you to do the same. To learn more about their mission or find resources, we encourage visiting their website at www.firststep-mi.org, or contacting their 24-hour helpline at 734-722-6800.
