8th Annual Mother’s Grace Brunch
Mother’s Grace held its eighth annual fundraising brunch at El Chorro on May 4. The event drew 350 guests and generated $300,000, which will be used to help families and children in the immediacy of life tragedies.
Marlen Isaac of Isaac Jewelry was honored as Volunteer of the Year and also sponsored the event. Four speakers who have been supported by Mother’s Grace shared their experiences and explained the life-changing help the organization provided them.
The day also included shopping from Jewel Ya, Galicia Fine Jewelers, Bungalow Furniture and Accessories, Tresori Vineyards and Seraphym Designs. The vendors donated 20 percent of their total sales to Mother’s Grace.
A committee of Michelle Moore-Fanger, Terri Buccino, Angela Ducey, Sandy Metzler, Leanne Mariano, Jodi Mastro, Manisha Javia, Jennifer Dowse, Lisa Davis, Libby Murphy and Jackie Miller-Storey organized the brunch.
Mother’s Grace is a Paradise Valley-based nonprofit organization that provides financial support and guidance to mothers and children in the midst of difficult life circumstances.
