Events & Fundraisers


November 6, 2025 | The Lodge at Rush Lakes

Our inaugural Strength Soirée was a beautiful fall night of community in support of Stepping Stone. Our harvest table had a seat for everyone, along with food stations, a cash bar, music, a firepit with s’mores fixings, pontoon rides, and the incredible stories of those affected by sexual assault, domestic violence, and human trafficking. This event brought friends and neighbors together to share the story that belongs to all of us. Together, we’re working to extend the table so people experiencing or affected by sexual assault, domestic violence, or human trafficking can live the safest, healthiest, happiest lives possible.
