In 2007, the Habit of the Heart Gala Weekend raised a remarkable $32,000 to benefit Hendricks County women and children in emergency need as well as the Hendricks County Community Foundation. Friday’s Gala Dinner included auctions, Tablescapes judging, dinner and dancing. Saturday’s Ladies in Red Luncheon featured a purse auction, coffee bar, lunch and keynote speaker, Dr. Suzanne Metzger.
The next Habit of the Heart Gala Weekend will be held on September 19 and 20, 2008.
