March 12, 2009 - Journey Home Breakfast

The Fourth Annual Journey Home Breakfast held on March 12 was a huge success.  More than $125,000 was raised to benefit the services and programs of Abode Services.  The Journey Home breakfast is an annual event focused on engaging members of the community to make long-term commitments of financial support.  Many thanks to our generous sponsors, volunteers and donors.
