You are invited to join us and other community leaders for A Cause for Celebration 2025, Arise Collective’s annual fundraising event. The event will be held at The Palm Venue, located at 740 SE Maynard Road, Cary, NC, on Thursday, October 30, 2025. Doors open and networking begins at 5:30 p.m., and the program will start at 6:00 p.m. The evening will be filled with delicious food and beverages, inspiring stories, sensational music by SmoothIvory2, a fund-a-need auction hosted by Ben Farrell of Custom Benefit Auctions, and a raffle featuring fantastic prizes. We will also host the 6th Annual Hope Awards Ceremony, where three inspiring leaders in our community will be honored. Guests will be able to enjoy a raffle and live auction with prizes, including a 3-night stay at a cabin in the North Carolina mountains. “This year, we will emphasize the importance of community and the positive impact that supportive and healthy systems have on women reintegrating into society after incarceration,” says Amy Otto, Board Chair of Arise Collective. “This event will highlight the strength and safety that arise when we all come together to support justice-involved women, ultimately benefiting both the women themselves and our entire community.” Now in its 45th year, Arise Collective provides chaplaincy services, transition education, and affordable housing and reentry support to women in North Carolina. We cannot do this work without partners like you. Join us in being part of this fun and festive occasion!
