The Midwest Charity Begins at Home committee would like to take this opportunity to THANK our amazing sponsors, volunteers and community who have helped us give out over 2.4 million so far through our Mitchell and Brown Gala Dinner.  These funds will enable us to help more families in need during this emotional and exhausting time. Your support, in whatever shape or form, is the reason for our success – you have helped ease the financial worries for our local families as well as lift their spirits during their darkest hours.

We are extremely proud to be a part of such a fantastic and supportive community!

We sincerely hope we can count on your support for this year’s gala, Geraldton’s premier event of the year.
