Join Us in a Celebration of Compassion
Join us for our 8th Annual Rooted in Love Luncheon at noon on Wednesday, October 16. We are so excited to return to Judson Mill Annex and also offer a virtual group option. All guests will enjoy a delicious meal from Jasmine Kitchen, our social enterprise lunch cafe.
This event will be centered around stories of courage, hope and compassion from our graduates, as well as keynote speaker Captain Alia Paramore with the Greenville Police Department. Local artist Meredith Piper will also be returning to live paint another stunning piece during the event that we will auction off. We will also be unveiling our newest candle!
This year we’ve already celebrated two women as they graduated from the Jasmine Road residential program and took the next step in their journey. This luncheon is our only major fundraising event and provides critical resources for Jasmine Road’s operations as we serve survivors of commercial sexual exploitation in the Upstate. We are dedicated to serving the community but we can’t do it without your support.
Thank you for walking alongside us in our mission to bring hope and healing back to women in our community. Your dedication and compassion for survivors in our community is incredibly appreciated. We hope you will join us in investing in the women of Jasmine Road and their futures by providing opportunities to flourish, one life at a time.
For more information, please contact our office at info@jasmineroad.org or 864-546-5077.
Featuring inspiring stories of healing and growth from our own Jasmine Road graduates and these special guests.
