What a day. π
Our 2nd Annual D.O.V.E. Luncheon was everything we hope it would be, and more. Because of the incredible generosity of our community, together we raised more than $107,000 to support survivors!
That number represents so much more than a successful luncheon. It represents safe shelter, advocacy, resources, hope, dignity, and fresh starts for survivors of domestic violence, human trafficking, and sexual assault.
To every sponsor, donor, community partner, and every person who joined us for lunch - THANK YOU. You showed up, gave generously, and reminded survivors throughout our community that they are not alone.
π A very special thank you to Potosi Live - Abilene TX for welcoming us into the perfect space and providing an absolutely delicious lunch. Your team helped make the entire day feel seamless and special from beginning to end.
πΈ We are also incredibly grateful to Images By Laurel, who generously donated her time and talent to capture the day so beautifully. Thank you for giving us these moments to look back on and share.
π A special thank you to Happy Yappy Co for creating the most beautiful balloon arch for our Meet & Greet, it was the perfect backdrop and added such a special touch to the day! And thank you to Card My Yard Abilene for the beautiful indoor sign that welcomed guests as they arrived. We are so grateful for these local businesses who helped make the D.O.V.E. Luncheon feel extra special from the moment guests walked through the doors!
πΌ We also want to thank the incredibly talented Emily Hernandez for creating a beautiful painting live on stage during the luncheon! Watching the piece come together throughout the event was such a unique experience, we are so grateful she shared her talent and time with us.
And to Robin Givens, thank you for your courage, vulnerability, and willingness to share your story. Your words reminded us of the power of believing survivors, supporting survivors, and standing beside them. You inspired all of us.
D.O.V.E. stands for Dignified Options through Validation and Empowerment. On this day, our community showed up and gave that to survivors.
More than $107,000 raised. One incredible community. Countless lives impacted!
From all of us at Noah Project, thank you for making the 2026 D.O.V.E. Luncheon a day we will never forget. π
