Description

This is our main fundraiser for the year to help cover our operating expenses. We acquired a new home for our single moms and we are raising money to help sustain it. We are having a hybrid event. We are allowing up to 150 people to attend in person to a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new building but we are also continuing our online auction which we started in 2020. There are many in the region who will be sharing this event information with their networks. We have been promoting this through social media, individualized mailings, word of mouth, email newsletters, and speaking engagements with churches and public organizations.

This is the messaging we are showing on our auction website:

Please join us in raising the funds needed to cover our program for the coming year. Adding four new moms/babies will require an additional $35,000 this year.

Together we can continue to empower mothers who are in crisis by covering costs for education, transportation, therapy, food, baby items, and a loving home that is cradled by our community. Please Bid on these items, or Donate now to carry us through this year! #2023cradlefundraiser
