Approximately 500 people attended the Cultivate Hope Gala to hear inspiring stories from Ashtin, Eli and Adriana, who are participants of The Matthews House. The nonprofit has created a safe place where youth are provided with the resources and support needed to escape the cycles of poverty and abuse. The evening brought the community together, reaffirmed The Matthews House mission and raised around $180,000 so that youth and families can see continued support.
