HOPE IN THE HANDWRITING

The benefit event for Helpmate entitled, Hope in the Handwriting was a success! So many supporters attended the event which consisted of a silent auction, live music by Jeff Santiago, and a hope notes display for guests to write words of encouragement to women facing domestic violence. The hope notes will be given to women who use the services of Helpmate.

Asheville's renowned chef, Laurey Masterson provided the delicious treats at her location, Laurey's Catering. Exquisite Events and Consulting provided consulting services to the event organizer, Liz Miller. For additional photos please visit Irene Lucia Lopez De Carrizosa's post on facebook.
