Building Dreams:
Ball Gowns and Blue Jeans 2025
You’re invited to an exciting evening to celebrate Building Dreams, the annual fundraiser to benefit Eden Centers for Hope and Healing and the clients we serve. This year’s event will start with an exclusive Patron Party for our Sponsors and Patrons before the main event. We are continuing our favorite theme of “Ball Gowns and Blue Jeans.” Our event will be held on Wednesday, November 19, 2025, at the lovely home of Mr. and Mrs. Murray Calhoun with the Patron Party beginning at 6:30PM and the main gala at 7:30PM. Main Gala tickets are available for $250 and Patron tickets are available for $750—purchase by clicking the button above.
The growth of the Eden Centers organization would not be possible without the continued support from our friends and supporters through their sponsorship of our annual fundraising event. We hope you will join with them in becoming a supporter and making a difference in the lives of victims who deserve a chance at a better life.
Thank you so much for considering this opportunity to support Eden Centers. We would love to have you join us on Wednesday, November 19, 2025.
