You, your friends, and your organization can play a meaningful part in supporting survivors of domestic violence at LifeWire’s World of Hope Gala & Auction, our signature annual fundraiser. This inspiring evening brings together community members, partners, and supporters to raise the critical funds that allow LifeWire to provide safety, stability, and healing to more than 6,000 individuals every year.

We are currently recruiting volunteers to help with event setup, guest check-in, auction activities, and more. This is a great opportunity for you and your group to make a tangible impact, build service hours, and be part of a powerful evening of community and compassion.
