Featuring Midnight Star Live
Join us for an unforgettable evening of purpose, hope, healing and legendary entertainment as Midnight Star performs live at the 11th Annual Purple Gala.
The Purple Gala brings our community together to raise awareness and provide meaningful support for men and women affected by domestic violence. This is more than a formal event. It is an opportunity to stand with survivors, strengthen families and help create pathways toward safety, financial stability, improved health and long term healing.
All proceeds benefit programs, education, advocacy, emergency assistance and resources for men and women experiencing domestic violence situations.
Presented by She Did That Community Advocate Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, in partnership with Journey Towards Purpose Global Institute.
Why the Purple Gala Matters
Domestic violence does not affect only one person. Its impact reaches children, families, workplaces, finances, physical health, mental health and entire communities. Awareness is important, but survivors also need access to real resources. Our work addresses the many challenges connected to domestic violence, including personal safety, financial stability, physical and mental health, education, advocacy and rebuilding life after abuse. Every sponsorship, table, ticket, advertisement and donation helps us continue creating opportunities for education, support and healing.
