Gala Will Benefit Mom’s House By Dayna M. Reidenouer

“Paths to Prosperity: A Story of Two Generations” has been set as the theme for the third annual gala to benefit Mom’s House of Lancaster. The event will be held on Friday, Oct. 12, at Lancaster Country Club, 1466 New Holland Pike, Lancaster. The doors will open at 5 p.m., at which time attendees may purchase beverages and place bids in a silent auction. The plated dinner will be served at 6 p.m. A social hour will be held following the meal along with a program that will include a live auction and several speakers. Lori Burkholder will act as master of ceremonies. The auctions will feature jewelry, getaways, fine dining, spa experiences, sports memorabilia, and entertainment. There will also be an opportunity to win a stay in a Lancaster County bed-and-breakfast.

Mom’s House executive director Sara Johns and gala committee member Carole Kirchner related that the client speakers are slated to be an adult who attended Mom’s House as a child, a mother who graduated from the program, and a father who has participated in the program as well. “We give (parents) a chance to break the cycle of poverty through education and child care,” Johns explained. “They offer support to the moms and dads to get their educations,” Kirchner added. The mission of Mom’s House of Lancaster, located at 415 S. Queen St., Lancaster, is to break the cycle of poverty by helping single parents reach their educational goals. Parents may be pursuing their GED or a master’s degree or anything in between, but all participants have access to parenting and life See Mom’s House Gala pg 8
