About this event
Sojourner House will host its 17th Annual Victorian Tea on Sunday, August 15, 2021, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Omni William Penn Hotel in Downtown Pittsburgh. Social hour will be from 1 to 2 p.m.
The Victorian Tea is an important awareness event and fundraiser that brings together hundreds of individuals: many mothers, daughters, fathers, and sons, along with corporate, community, and church-based friends. Attendees will enjoy a traditional tea, silent auction and raffle, while learning about the award-winning work of East Liberty-based Sojourner House -- a six-month residential rehabilitation program for addicted mothers and their children -- and hearing the inspiring stories of the families who have lived there. Award-winning journalist Brian Cook will emcee this year’s Victorian Tea. Megs Yunn, Founder and Executive Director of Beverly's Birthdays, will serve as this year's Honoary Chair.
Kathleen Hendrickson, long-time supporter and volunteer of Sojourner House, will be honored posthumously as this year’s Pearl of Hope Honoree.
Please help us celebrate the successes of our families, and support us as we continue our fight to keep families together so they can become healthy, productive citizens of our community.
