Oh, What A Night!
Healing Hearts 2024

Written by Kristen Minichello

On November 1, 2024, the beautiful Blue Heron Brewery and Event Center provided an inspiring setting for Healing Hearts – An Evening of Hope & Inspiration, hosted by The Children’s Center. This special evening brought together a caring community, each attendee united in support of children and families.

We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who contributed to the success of Healing Hearts. To the generous Attendees, our dedicated Fundraising Committee, supportive Sponsors, remarkable Auction Donors, and hardworking Volunteers – your efforts made this evening one to remember, filled with compassion, joy, and meaningful support.

A special thank you to BrooklynMedia for capturing the evening’s memorable moments. We’re incredibly grateful to Brooke for documenting such a meaningful night!

We hope you enjoy the photographs of the event that are available. We expect to have additional photographs soon.
