“Working with PADV to provide IT service and support for their operation has given Integris leadership insight into the valuable role the agency plays in stemming the destructive cycle of domestic violence and abuse,” said Integris CEO Hamish Davidson. “We enthusiastically support PADV’s mission, and we are honored to count the agency and its Hearts with Hope Gala among the charitable causes Integris supports in our community.”
Each year PADV’s Hearts with Hope Gala is not only a key fundraiser for an important mission; it is also a celebration of the many successes achieved by its clients—victims of domestic violence. Hearts with Hope is an elegant event featuring a sociable cocktail hour, fabulous dining, live music and an exciting auction where attendees bid to win prized items and support the charity.
For this year’s gala, PADV set an ambitious goal—to nearly double the funds traditionally raised by the event from close to a half-million dollars to nearly one million. The monies raised by the yearly celebration support PADV’s general operating expenses, allowing the agency to further its extensive domestic violence prevention efforts.
