You are invited to our Annual Fundraising Dinner and Auction on April 19th, at the Dallas Westin City Center.  

This is our one big event of the year as far as coming together to raise funds specifically for the Heartlight residential program.  We do so through a Silent and Live Auction, as well as through sponsorships of tables at the event.

The night’s activities will begin with the Silent Auction, giving everyone plenty of time to meander, mingle, and meet. Then, Doyle Dykes, one of the finest guitarists in the world, will be entertaining us during dinner.  He recently mesmerized us with his talent in a concert held at Heartlight.  To celebrate Heartlight’s upcoming 20th Anniversary, I’ve invited our first Heartlight resident and her dad to speak to us, sharing their perspective “20 years later.” I will give a short update on the growth of the ministry, and we’ll close things out with a Live Auction.

Would you please join us?  It will be an evening you’ll remember for years to come.  Just call 903.668.2173 to R.S.V.P. 

Even if you can’t be present, perhaps you can “participate from afar?” You can do this a couple of ways:

First, we’re looking for more items for the auction. Perhaps you have or know of someone who does have some valuable items that might be helpful. Here are some ideas: art, antiques, your company’s product, time shares, events (concerts, fishing trips or hunts), flying lessons, guns, gift baskets, or services. Just about anything goes, and it is one way that people can help.

Or, maybe you can make some phone calls and secure some items for us. Whatever you can do in this regard, please let Amanda Cox know. You can reach her at our office at 903.668.2173.

Another way you could help would be to sponsor a table. These table sponsorships are for $1,000 or $2,500. Of course, the $2,500 tables would be up front. You can do this and come to the event, or sponsor a table without coming. If you wanted to come and bring a table full of people, this is most helpful.

Basically, our hand is out to you, inviting your participation at any level. Heartlight has made it 20 years because of the involvement of our friends.

We hope to see you there.
