EVENING OF HOPE 2024

On Thursday, 17 October we are holding our third annual gala - An Evening of Hope 2024 - at 6301 E Mariposa Street, Scottsdale, AZ 85251, starting at 6:00pm. Dress Code is Business Casual. It is also appropriate if you want to dress up to Semi-formal for fun!

Our Evening of Hope events are an opportunity to join survivors, supporters and representatives from the community for some good food, fellowship and fun. This year, we are thrilled to have Ron Blake as our Keynote speaker. In his Ted talk, Strangers, Hope, and Sharpie Markers Saved My Life, Ron shares how, in the darkness of PTSD, he found inspiration in a dream of meeting strangers and achieving his goal of appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert! Several thousand strangers later, Ron has earned the reputation of being an inspirational speaker for survivors and supporters alike.

There is no charge for the event but come prepared to bid in the auction! Registering is important as it enables us to plan appropriately.

Following the success of the Silent Auction at last year’s event, we are going to hold another this year! We were able to fund several survivors through counseling programs because of your incredible generosity.

The auction will be managed using an on-line platform so that guests can bid anonymously using their phones. Also, supporters of Courageous Survivors who are unable to attend the event in person can still take part. The auction will open a few days before the event and close during the evening so that guests can take their items home. We will ship any items that are won by people unable to attend.

As we did last year, we have received donations from several local business and supporters, for which we are very grateful. If you would like to donate an item for the auction, please use our contact form and we will get in touch to make the arrangements.
