Behind the Mask
Victims often mask their suffering in fear of retaliation, further abuse, and social judgment. This masquerade becomes a poignant metaphor for the unseen struggles, both physical and emotional, endured by those ensnared by abuse. While these masks add an air of mystery and elegance to the evening, they also serve as a powerful reminder that domestic violence thrives in silence. This masquerade is our pledge to bring visibility to a cause that deserves our attention, compassion, and unwavering support.

- Champagne and specialty cocktails during cocktail hour
