We are speechless as we bask in the huge success of Saturday’s Good Hope Gala!

We had an amazing night enjoying great food, bidding on auction items, dancing the night away with The Jogo Project, and of course, raising money to support our direct service and advocacy programs in Northwest and Southeast DC.

The final tally? Drumroll please…together, we raised $1,253,101, shattering all of our goals and records! You played a huge role in this success and for that, you should be really proud.

To make night even better, more than 490 guests packed the house to help us celebrate our legal clinic and its 25 years of creating access to justice. Thank you to all of those who joined us for a memorable night!

Every year we are reminded of BFC’s incredible support system: you. To all of our friends and neighbors, thank you for allowing us to continue the fight to end poverty in the District.

You can check out pictures of our amazing celebration here, and watch a tribute to our legal team and their determined clients here.
