Saturday evening June 13th at the FEC, First Step Florence hosted their 3rd GALA to raise funds for the "ground work" (literally) to be able to bring in two duplexes

With 101 people in attendance, First Step Florence hosted a successful GALA Fundraiser on Saturday evening - reaching their $100,000 goal to break ground in preparation for two duplexes on the First Step property north of town. FSF staff, board and participants are filled with gratitude for the individuals, groups, businesses and organizations support of their work and this year's GALA! More detail and appreciation to come.

Today is the day! Send positive vibes and heartfelt prayers for a strong fundraising GALA this evening. We have a "double your gift" matching donation if $50,000. And are so excited to take our own first steps toward building on the FSF property north of Munsel Lake road.
