Sexual Assault Awareness Month
Each April, Project Horizon staff hosts events, speak outs, or awareness campaigns to recognize Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Stay tuned on social media if you're interested in attending our next SAAM event!
Deck the Halls
Held every year in early December, this event provides an elegant dinner with live music and dancing and a silent auction.
​
The real entertainment, however, is our live auction. Generous donations from local business and community members make Deck the Halls a wonderful evening.
All funds raised are used locally to provide services for domestic and sexual violence. To join the Deck the Halls Gala Committee, contact us.
