Join us for a decade of celebration at the 10th annual Empowerment Dinner & Fundraiser on October 7th!

Honoring Joanna Nelson, General Manager of Bavarian Inn Lodge, all proceeds benefit the programs of Underground Railroad, and survivors of abuse in our local community.

Come early to browse our silent auction, try your luck at the Wine Pull, or join other exciting games while you sip cocktails and anticipate a full buffet of Frankenmuth fine dining. Plus, hear an inspiring testimonial from a special survivor speaker, and get a sneak peek at what's coming for our 50th anniversary in 2027!

If you can't make it in person, mark your calendar for October 2nd when our silent auction goes live online and you can bid from home!

Thank you to our sponsors!
