    Join us for Opening Doors for Women, New Life Mission’s  annual fall fundraiser, proudly presented by Galleria of Art and Photography—thank you for helping open doors to brighter futures for women and children. Step into an evening of hope, possibility and transformation as we come together to open doors for women with children experiencing homelessness in our community. Experience the Behind Closed doors exhibit, a powerful visual storytelling exhibit featuring photographs and quotes that   reveal some of the circumstances that led a mother and her children into homelessness.

     

    Then, we’ll open doors to an unforgettable evening featuring chef-crafted heavy hors d’oeuvres from the area’s premier restaurants, drinks, live music, live and silent auctions, and the powerful testimony of a New Life Mission graduate who transformed the trajectory of her family for generations to come.

    

    Your attendance helps make transformation possible. All proceeds benefit New Life Mission families, providing the housing, programs and support they need to move from homelessness to lasting independence. Come experience the stories. Celebrate the transformation. Be part of Opening Doors Thursday, October 8, 6–9 pm at Space Coast Center for Collaboration (1100 Rockledge Blvd, Rockledge, FL).
