Community Gathers to Support Human Services Campus at ‘I Am Home’ Breakfast


The Event: Mike McQuaid ‘I Am Home’ Breakfast 

The Cause: Human Service Campus

Event Date: December 14, 2022

Location: Arizona Biltmore Resort

Signature Sponsor: Avondale Toyota

Dollars Raised: $900,000+

Notable Moments: The pre-holiday breakfast began with a special Native American blessing before diving into a program that featured stories of transformation and the annual “state of the campus.” While many glimmers of hope were present throughout the stories of perseverance of those served at the Human Services Campus, there is still so much more support needed for those experiencing homelessness.
