Events
2020 brought many challenges to all of us. The pandemic lead to the cancellation of pretty much every industry event, including our Rings of Strength and Facets of Hope event. Our hope is that in 2021 we can return to gathering with our friends and celebrating our success in helping children in need.
Watch for details on 2021 activity.
