Dallas-based non-profit agency, The Family Place, kicked off festivities for the 26th annual Partners Card at upscale Oak Lawn boutique, Nuvo.
“We are thrilled to be part of this Dallas fundraising tradition,” said co-chair Julian Leaver, who spoke to the jovial patrons, alongside fellow co-chairs Leigh Danley and Tierney Kaufman Hutchins as well as this year’s honorary chair, Max Trowbridge.
The Family Place CEO, Paige Flink was joined by board members, family and longtime supporters at Nuvo. The cheerful crowd delighted in sips and scrumptious bites from Parigi – Chef-Owner Janice Provost was on the scene looking pretty in pink, of course. Guests enjoyed visiting with esteemed artist, Kris Ammon (of KCA Design) who was on the scene hand painting an assortment of items purchased by patrons, including candles, picture frames and coffee table books.
The Family Place is leading the charge with a mission to empower victims of family violence by providing safe housing, counseling and skills that create independence while building community engagement and advocating for social change to stop family violence. As its signature fundraiser, Partners Card is a 10-day shopping event that will run from Friday, October 26th to Sunday, November 4th this fall. Shoppers purchase a Partners Card for $70 to receive a 20% discount at 750+ participating retailers across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Over the past 25 years, the efforts have raised more than $18 million to help break the cycle of family violence in our community.
