Embracing Autism, Hear Our Voices Evening Event
The 3rd Annual Embracing Autism Evening, Hear our Voices event surpassed all expectations, marking a profound success! We extend our deepest gratitude to all sponsors and attendees who gathered to support Avondale House and gather crucial funds for our programs.
Under the incredible leadership of co-chairs Emily and Allen Capps and Ashley and Christian Nelly, the event raised over $345,000! Guests enjoyed an unforgettable special performance from Nashville's #1 Hit Singer-Songwriters, Phillip White, Mark Nesler, Leslie Satcher and Jenn Schott and a phenomenal opening performance from Luke Morace. Guy Buckley, our mission moment speaker, pulled at everyone's heartstrings in his touching speech. We honored Cadence Bank for their immense generosity and support for our mission. Lucky guests took home the stunning Amethyst Wing Earrings donated by Sannam W Jewelry, "Western Wonders" paintings created by our adult participants Ian and BJ, a one-of-a-kind guitar signed by many country music legends and handwritten lyrics from Rascal Flatts smash hit "I'm Moving On" written by Phillip White and D. Vincent Williams, and TWO adorable white lab puppies from Dog Lab TX. Shoutout to Emcee and Auctioneer Johnny Bravo for making it such an extraordinary and magical evening!
Thank you to all for your amazing generosity that helps us to ensure that individuals with autism receive the care they need to develop to their fullest potential. Together, we are paving the path towards a brighter, more inclusive future.
It's not too late to donate to Hear our Voices and show your support for our programs! Every dollar raised will help us continue to grow and support more individuals with autism.
